Houthi Blockade of Red Sea Exposes Ongoing American Decline

About a week ago, we got an unexpected view into the alarming levels of dysfunction which has plagued the executive branch of American government. It is, of course, no secret that all branches of that system are beset with varying degrees of dysfunction. However what made this particular episode so noteworthy was the impressive level of dysfunction that it accidentally uncovered. In case you are still wondering what I am talking about, here is a short version of the story. It begins with the defense secretary, Lloyd Austin, somehow ending up in the ICU of Walter Reed medical center to treat complications arising from a somewhat routine surgical procedure he allegedly had around Christmas. Based on what we know thus far, a routine prostatectomy caused a serious UTI infection about a week later- and this was serious enough to require over a week in the ICU. Now, this situation (though unfortunate) is not rare, however what followed this hospitalization is anything but routine.
