Coronavirus: America's Reckoning 

25:25, please include time stamps...

this is the sort of behavior I would expect to see from the stupidest most ignorant of people. How can people act like this in a church, the house of our Lord. God should strike them all down with a bolt of lighting and render their blasphemous souls to Hell.

@@mayerscd Exactly I literally never see that in church ever if I were to act like that god knows what my parents would do to me.

It was no different than it was back in the days of Rome, Aegeus groups, Christians, persecuted and ridiculed for practicing their religion. Same thing here only it’s disease based instead of the Romas, throwing it into the lions the nonbelievers will never understand this.

Six Strings America has always been one of the most generous nations on Earth when disaster, illness or famine strikes. We’re not perfect to be sure. With the cluster f’ck that Bush 43 created in Iraq and then Obama in Libya, we were ready to start looking inward, yet globalism has crippled this country. Unfortunately, as optimistic as I am, I don’t think we will ever fully come back from this. I also think that the people who’ve looked to blame America for everything wrong in the world, will rue the day they celebrated our decline. But whatever is to come we will meet the challenge.

And don’t forget perpetual war. And it’s sad that we can’t stop looking at that slow motion car crash of the most corrupt society in human history. All those internally displaced people. Literal refugees. And homeless camps are in reality Refugee camps. Very sad.

Ebros it's not so much globalism that has slowed America it's your inability to adapt to the new world order.Most people do not want to see the USA go down,their just soo sick of them telling the world how great they are when this is not the case.

@HOT 2020 not really. New Zealand just declared NO NEW VIRUS CASES. they listened to doctors and shut down in mid March. Our country doesn't care about people its about money, always has probably always will until we vote for the changes that Bernie for example wanted.

@@lucadennett7656 I agree completely

Yes, it showed Americas shortcoming by offering financial support to every citizen and to businesses as well as rapid construction of emergency hospitals...most of which never got used

With millions driven into poverty and death.

Because we won't talk about the fallout of our political policies during this crisis, just like 2008-09. Millions of families effectively homeless because we bailed out banks instead of people while convincing the population that it was the right move. Socialist policies for big business and hard core Capitalism for people. The affordability of housing exploded out of reach for millions and banks, like ticks on a blood filled host, grew fat on the blood of those millions of families they displaced. The worst part is the number of lives that will end because there isn't the time left to recover from such massive loss. It takes decades to come close to home ownership, now. In a land with far too few well-paying jobs, a stripped-down, job-only education system that mortgages decades of life, and an uncaring, individualist society blind to the reality is rotting her foundation from the inside.

I didn't see a problem with our safety net.

Is treatment from covid for free?

I think our government try to help but corrupt politicians like Nancy Pelosi hold up relief bills because she wants things like flavored tobacco banned or she wants to bail out political lobbyists and Large Multinational corporations. Right now her and the Dems refuse to go back to work. I think there trying Trump impeachment 2. So sad where are there priority's.

@@wildwolf1351 - your Republician party is much worse. Blame your president, he's an idiot.

Karma?

Wild Wolf And that false narrative your preaching is part of the problem.

Trump Voters did this.

xDEPREDATEx Stay safe and healthy. I used to admire the US for its strength and power. Not anymore, now I just feel pity for the US and I think the former superpower USA will falter. It's not unparalleled it happened with ancient Rome and the Soviet Union before... America as it was is over. It took less than 4 short years ...

Agreed. I would consider this Bootstraps myth classism too.

American EXCEPTIONALISM will Kill America. The US Dollar will be in doldrums and will be a thing of the past soon. Americans have taken mother nature very lightly.. Devine retribution follows when innocent people suffer due to the Exceptionalism attitudes of the major population. God exists everywhere...America just forgot this. Only India can save America...only if American Exceptionalism does not stop it.

@Kayla Nguyen India can save America because it is the only Spiritual nation on the planet. Hamburger ain't gonna help America. Today non spiritual youth in America is a bigger concern then terrorism.

@@scientificspirituality4635 I agree with that, there's no more God in America and its sad!!!

Chad Marks Well there’s no need to brag !!!! 😝

Its also down to how remote New Zealand is. That and a low population density.

@@Emily-md9yu True but it also highlights what real leadership means, like Germany were well prepared and look how low the death rates are...

@@Emily-md9yu their death to infection numbers are really good though. Still good point.

@@Emily-md9yu it's not just low population density NZ prioritized public health over the economy and had one of the strictest lockdown in the world.

Voting wont end Covid-19, but, hopefully, we will get real leadership whose goal would be to help everyday Americans and NOT looking after multi-national companies. When it comes to pandemics, every country needs leadership FROM TOP, and should be as consistent as possible across the board, as it's the ONLY way contain the virus until vaccine becomes available.

Most people in the U.S. have been living the 'American nightmare" for decades. The top 1 - 10% have the dream.

Lmfao voting is just a waste of time it will just make things worse god help us all 🙏🏻

After i saw those dumb people celebrating spring break in America i face palmed so hard i needed an ice pack for my forehead... i skipped celebrating carnaval before it hit our country, i knew that if there was even one case walking around in that mass gathering of sloppy drunk people it would be a disaster and lo and behold after carnaval the first cases came rolling in...

They also stole face masks that Germany ordered while in transit. Despicable.

Not all of us Americans!!! I'm an American and I first heard about COVID-19 from a friend in Europe!! Unlike Trump supporters, I knew it was real and I literally prayed for the victims in Italy!! Don't confuse us empathetic Americans with the Trump supporters who still refuse to take COVID19 seriously!!!

Corporate bailouts good....people's bailout bad - United States Government

@@kahnj Well since corporations are "people" (who can financially support politicians) I guess bailing some "people" out is okay (Citizens United).

700 billion (!!!) EVERY (!!!) year for the military: good! Split this in half, half for defense, half of this amount for public health care: socialism - european - very bad!!!

It's just neo-liberal capitalism working as intended.

Americans fight so hard against welfare and rights for citizens because 'taxes bad' if it goes towards helping others, but welfare for corporations? Their all for it.

people are suffering and what do a lot of nurses do in various hospitals? Make dance videos on tik tok.

Billion dollar corporations : we pay more tax

@@lauras3612 omg nurses are trying to have fun on the clock! the virus MUST NOT BE THAT BAD DERP DERP DERP

@@olblue3478 actually they don't.

@@comrade3186 name one except Amazon

That would be nice but our healthcare system is corrupt and has to much political power. Big Pharma is a huge lobby power.

Should've voted Bernie

Trump left the country unprepared by his refusal to respond to the threat of the COVID 19 spread that has led to more than 1.3 million infected and 79,000 dead and an imploded economy.

The Obama administration had all the precautions in place for this after it saw the H1N1 pandemic over a decade ago. It even left trump of a play book for what to do in regards of different pandemic types he didnt take it serious.over the last 3 years he short funded the cdc Budget, disbanded the pandemic an infectious diseases task force. Took money from all aspects of public health to fund his precious wall project. We had a woman who worked out of the us embassy in china for the cdc, she resigned in summer of 18 he didnt replace her after she resigned. All the proper mechanisms were in place but the orange gorilla didnt care. For ratings immigration wall money for my rich friends. This country was a great country before he took over. Now we have to rebuild our international image an unity amongst our people if possible

J m 176 Americas image intill now was the country that is stuck in the past and thinks its match greater than it is So Americans image has not changed during this pandemic

@@Joseph-ub5wh I have a sneaking suspicion that the good people of Mexico may end up being grateful for that wall in an amused way, even though I doubt if it would ever have been effective. Less people will now believe the propaganda that the USA is the promised land of freedom and opportunity. The flow of refugees and people seeking a better future may end up reversing.

Alistair I wholeheartedly agree!

The "very stable genius" can fix it all alone ....

Reality is new Zealand is always safe.

Pat O NZ has a leader who cares about her fellow citizens, unlike some countries

@@pato2200 I bet the people who got their heads blown off by Brenton Tarrant said the same thing.

Same feeling here in Germany we were late to respond but now things are going quite well. At least or chancellor took the lead and gave good informations. I wonder if it is accidental that she is also a women.

Soo glad to be in geemany So glad that our leeder is a nerd and no actor So glad because of the care in Germany Gold luck

And guns.

Yes but spread probably more to do with using public transport and nightlife than the beach.

Mark C Littler it’s more like everything. Our transportation has not been sanitary enough, and nightlife is as likely as beaches or cities

@@airsickspace9272 The virus was obviously festering for weeks before the mass deaths were showing up implying it was extremely contagious, when that's not quite the case, it certainly doesn't travel by witchcraft or black magic. Its more than likely spread by polite close up talking in peoples faces.

We had a idiot for a leader. Thank God we got rid of him. He will never get close to power again in this country

suddenly all people say 'biblical'

I laughed out loud when that idiot said praying to God behind a screen isn't the same as praying in person! Omnipotent being foiled by plexiglass!

Nothing fails like prayer and faith!

This is where all the religious NUT JOBS COME OUT OF THERE LITTLE DARK DEPRESSIN CAVES ✌

Because this is the apocalypse that up 'til now has been a thing of fiction, a graphic novel or a marvel movie.

@@johnc3403meanwhile.... the other day in westminster / london i saw 3 police officers strolling down the street eating ice creams enjoying the sun.

alex de pfeffel i love ur profile pic it’s the best

ur profile pic is boris johnson’s face when he found out he got coronavirus

it's the ominous background music and mood lighting... I was thinking just the same! 🤭 oh and it's like the other guy said: we're living in a disaster movie. really. real life feels just like one! damn... I hope we have plot armour and get to survive... one thing is for sure, there'll be screenwriters bored at home penning the movie of this right now-

And getting worse

The country is not rich.. america is trillions in debt

What do we not have.

@@darknite-vu7sm common sense

@@noelpatterson8377 😂😂😂

Faux Manchu Which they spread around the rest of world without warning.

The Asians are used to no freedom

F Asians

@Squirrel they probably are but we dont know that they did react quickly

@@jeanmyers1787 it's not like no one knew there was a virus I could see it was going to spread on the 20th of January

Ironically they ll be back in the white house.

I would say bring US gov to account first. Just take a look at other countries, they handled this better and prevented unnecessary deaths.

Trump left the country unprepared by his refusal to respond to the threat of the COVID 19 spread that has led to more than 1.3 million infected and 79,000 dead and an imploded economy.

Sandy Rickard the people don’t really have any voting power because of the electoral college. Also a lot of people in the US are really ignorant so they don’t even research before they vote and they end up voting for someone just because they’re democrat or republican not because of their ideals and what they’ll do for this country. In order for America to be better we need to abolish the two party system.

capitalism is anti-democratic in nature don't fool yourself

@@WonderMagician now well over one million dead

@Happy Sloth for America to do better, both parties need to grow up and act like grownups

I agree. For a country that is so exceptional and so proud of its fundamental human rights, why is America the only major Western democratic country that does not have universal healthcare. The US does not appear either exceptional or fully rights-based

Corporate greed

Given the alternative, my view as an observer of US politics is that Mr. Trump will likely be re-elected. Unless, there's a better alternative to Mr. Trump & Mr. Biden. However, I doubt if such an alternative will come as such a time as this. Or, if Americans who are deeply tide to their political affiliations (i.e., Republicans, Democrats) will vote a candidate who is a party outsider.

@@yengsabio5315trump said it like flu go away number of people died

Blind tribalism.

@@yengsabio5315 tRump also said not to worry about covid19, because it was just a democrat Hoax to make him look BAD! tRump lied and thousands of Americans died!

@@colinmahoney7734 My prediction is wrong--Mr. Trump lost. As for Mr. Biden, I will always hope that he'll be a good US American president for the people of USA.

Covid-19?.

Not for long

The entire video consists of, "Oh, look at all the bodies! Wow, the mostly densely populated city in America has somehow churned out the most fatalities during an outbreak! Who would've thought?!"

While I don't disagree, it's bizarre hearing British reporting on this as if it is an outside situation. They're country is in similar shatters.

Saurabh Vikhe your lack of empathy puzzles me.

it does there are a lot of expensive cars in that line

@@CrazedCreationz Poverty in the richest country in the world. Paying for the most devastating military machine in history but not for their poor. That is what he meant.

It's just an irony that ppl can afford to buy cars and pay for gas, but not food. Different meaning of poverty from the rest of the world.

W A I don’t think it is but ok.

@MJ Don't be stupid. Her employer has taken the correct steps to protect her to the best of their ability. Unlike the medical staff's employers.

MrTAFSIYNOT lots of body bags , possible shortages.

I'm expecting Trump is going to lose some supporters, permanently.

I guess another depression is going to save more lives in the end???

@@grandslam5126 People don't understand this. Everyone is wrapped up in this overreaction, they don't think of how many years of consequence there will be because of this overreaction. Every leader all over the U.S. looked at NYC and said, "Oh no, we don't want that!" without realizing it's the most densely populated city in the U.S., so of course it's going to be the most impacted.

America is going to have this virus for a long time. The country needs tho learn to work as one.

But it was not. We all could have predicted it after seeing China closing its borders. We haven’t though. Almost no country has.

Julian Noyola that simply would not work here in the United States

Kwoods No, because the arrogance in our country is unbelievable. Stop making excuses!

@@kwoods3379 tRump Lied and thousands of Americans DIED!

@Kwoods if that is so, then America is not a robust democracy

The paramedics are trained in health and know this corona virus has tested positive for fraud! It kills no more people than a common cold or flu! Around +- 1%! Any lung problem is blamed on covid19 to make the hospitals more money and that's it! Nothing but 80% false positives to get the hospitals paid more for nothing but a PLANDemic!

They probably have to ration the gloves.

America is a snake that eating itself, I can't see the states surviving the 20th century

Its their own fault for voting trump

I think the divide is those who don’t want diversity and those who know our history and that this country was built on the backs of that diversity.

On the back of diversity Yha so diverse that they enslaved black people for most of its history America was build on white supremacy no other way to but it

@@a.n.l.aantineoliberalismas4504 Why should we feel guilty about being supreme? Not our fault.

Our current President is the source of much of the current division on this issue. He chose to politicize a viral outbreak, something no other country besides China tried to do. We have now seen how successful that was for China, it went global. For Trump, it remains to be seen but the early returns are not good.

@@probabletruth5511 That's a very dangerous mentality.

Same in the south. These people just wish we were all dying.

That's what it is

Laura Te Aho-White I got so tired of hearing that!

It’s just the flu

The Divided States of Embarrassment

That's why America has so many cases. People in those buildings. Work in them. It's a death trap when a highly infectious virus is in them.

Totally true.
