The Best Paragraph I've Read:


"America’s fractious and tragic response to the COVID-19 pandemic has made the nation look more like a failed state than like the richest country in world history. Doom-scrolling through morbid headlines in 2020, one could easily believe that we have lost our capacity for effective crisis response. And maybe we have. But a major crisis has a way of exposing what is broken and giving a new generation of leaders a chance to build something better. Sometimes the ramifications of their choices are wider than one might think."


This paragraph is from an article in the Atlantic titled: "Get Ready for the Great Urban Comeback."  The article is written by Derek Thompson.
