Being the realist I am, I highly doubt Ebola will become a major problem here in the United States. However, though, on the off chance it does, medical incompetence would be a huge reason why it did. And, unfortunately, that kind of incompetence is still a problem in this country,

The federal government needs to jump on this now. No screwing around. And if it hurts the economy just a little.....well, you know what? Too fucking bad. This takes precedence now, because our private healthcare system clearly can't handle this well on their own.
