I'm liking a lot of what Biden did on day one. It was mostly a reversion of everything Trump did. Incomplete so far, but a big step in the right direction. The only criticism I have so far of his actions is announcing that kids will be back in school in 100 days. That needs to be rethought. It's a bad idea to set that as an absolute time table this far out. Instead, set the goal to something like a certain number of people immunized, and then if that goal is reached THEN we can talk about reopening schools.
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
