Cry, Cry, Cry and Cry

Some More!!

The other evening I was viewing the Evening News.  The focus on the problems on distributing the Vaccine for the Covid-19 treatments/prevention caused the Anchor to express concern about how this would be accomplished in a timely and effective manner.  Not a very positive message which caused me to develop the title for this post.

However, I quickly recalled on how our United States of America reacted after the Attack on Pearl Harbor which happened on 7 December 1941.  Our Citizens and our Leaders  at all levels worked together to Win World War II.  We build ships, airplanes and tanks as well as trained our Soldiers, Marines, Coast Guard People and our Sailors to do their task using the basic concept of teamwork.  I even recall how us Post Toddler Farm Kids were able to pick milkweed pods for the fibre so that life vests could be produced.  

We even build Ocean worthy Ships to transport troops across the Seas to Europe, Africa and the Far East.  I have heard that we launched as many as three ships a day.  Some were consstructed on the East Coast and some on the West Coast.


Some of us have heard of "Rosie the Riveter" who worked in the ShipYards to replace males who were needed in the Military.

This all happened in the early 1940s without all of the technology we have today.  Yet our Citizens did it.  We had the famous "Manhatten" project which helped end the War.  Some may say many lives lost, but the facts are clear that if the War had continued many more lives would have been lost.

So today, December 2, 2020 we have those among us who question the ability of our United States of America to effectively transport Covid-19 Vaccine in a rapid and efficient manner.  I submit that it can be done!  What we do not need is our Media to tell us that it can not be done.  We have done far more complex task in our Past and with the tools we now have at our disposal now, today, I would submit that when we learn to work as a Team for the Good of All Peoples we can accomplish what some among us consider to be impossible.

So stop the crying.  No need for that.  Simply develope a positive attitude and remember what we have accomplished in our Nation's Past and expect our Citizens and Leaders to now work together as a Team!!!   I say it can and must be done!!
