Among the infinity of
unknowns about Covid 19 there is one
incontrovertible fact: It is not another Black
Death or Spanish Influenza. Deadly as it is, it
will not kill a third of Europe’s population or
100 million people worldwide.
Contingent on that fact is an obscure future
about which speculation is idle, but a few
things have become clear in its short, dramatic
run. It has hit countries unprepared for any
outbreak harder than those where some
prophylaxis was available. It hurt those that
denied or suppressed the knowledge of it and
didn’t act worse than those that did. It hit
America very hard as it was unprepared and
didn’t acknowledge it when it began.
With
infected numbers increasing, in widespread but
porous lockdown that has frozen the economy, and
with no certainty on its trajectory, the nation
is locked in bitter wrangling on what to do, how
to do it, and for how long.
Setting
aside the tragic, pathetic inadequacy of our
barbaric Capitalist Health Business Joke, the
pandemic has been curiously used by MSM
information meisters both to partially mask and
also to rationalize the latest monumental
implosion and crash of American Finance
Capital.
