How the American oligarchy profited on death
Trump’s remarks Wednesday give chilling immediacy to his declaration last week, when confronted with the reality that 1,000 people are dying every day, that “They are dying, that’s true, and it is what it is.”
Trump’s responsibility for these deaths is chilling to contemplate. But he could never have committed this crime without accomplices. While cheerleading the premature reopening of the country, the White House left the decision on reopening to the governors, all of whom, Democrat and Republican alike, reopened businesses in their states before the pandemic was contained. Many Democratic governors, including those of Maine, North Carolina, Kansas and Colorado, actually reopened businesses in defiance of the White House’s own guidelines.
When I told you so just doesn't provide any sense of comfort. Where I once boasted our governor was doing well he now falls into this same realm.
{Above all else, this year’s grim harvest of human lives has revealed the homicidal essence of capitalism and made clear that its urgent replacement with socialism is a matter of life and death.}
