That's true of everything in the US because it is uniquely in a position of having the resources to do anything, but leadership and consensus are the only things preventing it.
Its not that the consensus doesn't have its merits sometimes, it is just a unique position to be in where the infinite resources and infrastructure are available.
The (small-d) democratic consensus seems pretty strongly in favor of more intervention and aid in this crisis but the Senate is holding it up. It’s a failure in leadership in that they’re not helping the country but it’s also pretty clear that they are actively choosing not to.
It is easy to get in this circumstance in the US, it is also easy to not get in this circumstance in the US.
