So it takes something big and gnarly and really, really disruptive to overcome that inertia and this pandemic would certainly seem to fit the bill. As @AllanLichtman succintly put it, “Crises breed change" — PolitiTweet.org

That impetus is perhaps the most important factor.The nation’s founders were suspicion of strong, centralized power, having fought to leave the yoke of monarchy. So they made it really, really hard to bring about big, sweeping change. — PolitiTweet.org

Why is that? Because crises tend to point up deficiencies in the existing order, with horrific consequences. And they result in people --that is to say voters -- demanding someone DO something, as @julianzelizer put it — PolitiTweet.org

We do know big changing is coming because past crises have had long-lasting impact. Those monthly Social Security checks. The unemployment benefits that help tide workers over between jobs. The security lines snaking through airports. All resulted from crises like this pandemic. — PolitiTweet.org

What will those changes be? Efforts to strength the public healthcare system seem all but certain. Maybe laws to address the disparity between salaried employees and freelancers. Maybe experts will be more closely heeded when they speak of climate change and its dire effects. — PolitiTweet.org
