I meant “way to go” in ending up a situation where a grant from the government can’t be delivered in time, so a more expensive and damaging alternative becomes likely. It’s just poor organisation or coordination. I didn’t mean anything about the validity or appropriateness of the moratorium, or the ending of it. That wasn’t clear from the way I wrote my comment.

It’s a pity the article doesn’t go into more detail on the distribution. I felt that they kind of hinted that states had been slow to distribute the money to their constituents, but it doesn’t go any further.
