Old Guy,


I struggle trying to talk logic and statistics with you. It's as if there is some disconnect ...


The ONLY way you can measure how well our country did is in comparison to other countries at the SAME TIME. If you seriously are trying to look at the total number of deaths, then I seriously quesiton your ability to reason through anything more than the most basic conversations.


The ONLY way we can determine how well America is doing is not by looking at absolute numbers, like number of deaths, etc ... You have to look at the comparison to how the other countries did


When we do strategy planning, you look at the cumuluative threat in any situation. The cumulative threat or number is how you measure the performance of the individual countries. It's like saying Look how bad Obama did with the nuber of jobs lost or the how the economy did ... but then when you look at 1) What he inherited 2) How did America do compard to other countries 


We have a "New Normal" world-wide - This new normal 


The only way you can possibly assess the performance of the US is by comparing it to its peers in the same period. Anything short of that and the argument makes little if any sense.


Another example is looking at our recovery post 2008 - How was our unemployment activity compared to other countries recoviries - 


Maybe you can look at the GDP comapred to our previous GDP, look at the percent off of our average, then comapred that to others countries.


That's how I would personally think you could accurately assess


So, Covid deaths ... Tkae a period of time - the beginning of the pandemic. US had 5% of the population and 20-25% of the world's deaths. One could argue that we had better reporting ... sure, there are other variables...but when you look at the percent of the popuation of the world versus how many deaths or infections, you get a better idea of how we've done.


Compare known quanitites rather than taking an arbitrary comparison between years
