I think that's largely true, because no one has good answers here. All reasonable plans cannot be feasibly financed at the state level in the USA.

Still, it seems like a properly framed argument like yours would need to start with "They have no plan" and then move on to... a plan.

There are no good plans. At the end of the day we stay home, wait for infection rates to go down, and then spend a ton of money on testing and tracing. The other alternatives are to re-spawn the outbreak or to wait for a vaccine, both of which are even more expensive.

But that plan needs to happen at the federal level, California doesn't have the money.
