That wouldn't be entirely inappropriate to leave it up to states if the states weren't also clearly as incapable as the government has shown to be. Edit: sorry

That wouldn't be entirely inappropriate to leave it up to states if the states weren't also clearly as incapable as the government has shown to be. Edit: sorry for the confusion, I'm saying letting states decide on appropriate measures somewhat independently is not necessarily a bad idea when competent people are in charge. Each state will have unique circumstances which will require customized interventions. I hear Ohio has been handling this well.
