@OskiSD posted:That's a very valid point. These efforts don't work unless people buy in to the process (i.e., answer their phone, divulge contacts, etc). It's fascinating how resistant we are to those sorts of interventions when compared with, well, pretty much every other country that exists. There are some really interesting articles about the invasive nature of the responses in Taiwan and Korea.
Yeah, freedom is funny that way. A few 100 years of resisting being told what to do makes folks a tad independent.
I always find It odd when people try to compare actions and outcomes in the US with relatively small homogeneous countries. Diversity is celebrated until something doesn't work like Korea then damn it, why can't we all think and act the same......
