>Our lockdowns were so badly done they didn't even decrease the daily case count.

Is it any wonder? Look at the comments here. Look at guys like Elon Musk breaking quarantine for economic reasons and getting praised for it. Conspiracies abound.

This didn't happen in less partisan countries. Like absolutely everything else in the US, the lockdown became a political issue, for and against it.

Where I'm from, everyone took it seriously and in a matter of weeks we got down to ZERO active cases. Then again, we don't hate people who have different politics.

its not just political. The rich and powerful have too much influence. Countries with high income equality are the ones with successful lockdowns.

When your president is one of the richest men in the world its hard to convince leadership to shut down the economy.

And the US is pretty much unique with the whole "corporation is a person" nonsense
