A poll was done....asking Germans how they felt the 'management' of the government (meaning the federal, state and local folks) over the Covid-19 business.
54-percent of Germans said either 'crappy' or 'extremely crappy' (my translations or definitions).
Going into an election year, this would probably not be positive news to view or reflect upon.
I won't call it mismanagement or incompetence. To some degree....managers or leaders were doing the best with the limited amount of background or training in this area. You'd have x-problem come up, and ten solutions thrown up on the white-board....with the team selecting their gut-feeling choice.
This latest round with the mask business....admitting that for almost 10 months, they let just about any mask be 'approved' for use? Then suddenly, they reflect upon the options and throw out the cloth masks entirely....which is probably what 80-percent of people had in their jacket or purse? Then you do this in such a hurry....that few of any pharmacy operations or grocery stores have the mask? Then you find a shop who will sell you the now-approved mask.....but instead of 1.20 Euro....you get screwed for 4.50 Euro?
The 15 km range limit in some communities with high rates of Covid-19? No science can prove anything over the limit, and cops feel silly asking you on the street where you live and then try to figure if you went 15.5 km and thus violated the ban rule?
The problem here? You can't find one guy or group to fire.
If you could find that individual....folks would start to get politically charged up and demand some reasonable rules.
What likely occurs as the state elections occur, and the September national election occurs? I suspect the main two parties are going to be damaged in some way....both losing five points each.
