Despite all the Heir's gotten me the Mentor to post on our shares base regarding the coronavirus, he's cognizant of the fact that people died, and there's social and economic chaos that's been caused.  So he sees it as unhelpful that mainstream media themselves are attacking the experts by obsessing over what the experts said in late January and early February.  This was just before the first case of community transmission after American tourists in China were airlifted back in the U.S. and put in quarantine.  At the time the media spread a lot of hysteria over the coronavirus, and the Heir has registered his criticisms of that below.  A number of experts, including Anthony Fauci, stepped forward to say as paraphrased, "at this time the risk to the public is low."  But now the media's attacking them for having said that, making references to their "messaging."  That's the media saying, see we told you so.  But the Heir proclaims that the media is wrong in *their* messaging on this one.  He remembers a criticism Rachel Maddow made about the media on political matters that even if the media was *accidentally* correct about a certain thing, they're wrong for being so certain.  So here the Heir believes the media is still wrong for being certain that the coronavirus would become a pandemic.  Now it is, but that reveals the media criticisms of the experts' "messaging" as being no more than hindsight equaling 20/20.

The Heir believes we in the U.S. are debasing ourselves patriotically (or unpatriotically rather) by exalting South Korea's response to the coronavirus with extensive testing.  He believes the comparison was made as a criticism of Trump, but he doesn't believe South Korea really earns as many brownie points as the American debasers seems to believe.  Sure South Korea's doing testing, but they too lack a vaccine or a cure to the virus, and they don't appear as aware of there being multiple strains in the future as we do.  Also, the Heir believes our paucity in resources has made us try to act more of a community in terms of goodwill companies and non-profits pitching in in making sure that at least Bachelor Blue State has increasingly sufficient PPE's to meet the demand.  We've deployed the Army Corps of Engineers to build hospitals from the ground up to try to absorb positive cases, and we're opening multiple testing sites.  We had to do this all from scratch, and that's something the Heir as seeing South Korea not really understanding all that well.  They've basically had their solutions handed to them on a silver platter, and once that approach fails the Heir believes it's the U.S. that will pull far ahead of South Korea, and it'll be South Korea that will in turn exalt the U.S. in its efforts made thus far.  Or at least Bachelor Blue State.  But the bottom line is that if you've got everything handed to you on a silver platter, you learn nothing from the experience, and you're more vulnerable than those who had to use their elbow grease and their ingenuity to solve the problem at hand.  So this is how the Heir actually disagrees with Elizabeth Warren's apparent exaltation of South Korea, reflecting an exaltation on the part of apparently other political figures.

"If you've got everything handed to you on a silver platter, you learn nothing from the experience, and you're more vulnerable than those who had to use their elbow grease and their ingenuity to solve the problem at hand.  And by the way people, don't quote this one out of context five years down the road."
