COVID-19: Every Region of the World Is ‘Worst Affected’

The pandemic-related economic collapse is exacerbating the “three apartheids of our times” – money, medicine and food, writes Vijay Prashad.

{Rising food prices come at a time when unemployment rates in many parts of the world have skyrocketed.}

Which highly diminishes any indication of wage growth towards $15 an hour. Especially for a single parent. Without healthcare coverage of some type, fast foods restaurants still have a hard time bringing workers in.

{Lives are rendered as waste, voices as noise rather than speech, protests as traffic issues or crime. People are told that their suffering is a matter of personal failure, their attempts to cope with their situation consequent to moral dissolution. They can be murdered by the state during a protest or an eviction without consequence.”}

In other words. Addressing the real problems will not be tolerated.

{The ILO report shows that the “worst-affected regions in the first half of 2021 have been Latin America and the Caribbean, and Europe and Central Asia.”

This is one of those phrases – “worst-affected regions” – which mean little. Every region of the world is the worst-affected, each region dense with suffering.

Nonetheless, Latin America and the Caribbean have been the most impacted by Covid-19, with 8.4 percent of the global population and 27.8 percent of the deaths because of the pandemic (though these numbers are inaccurate, given the collapse of measurement in India).}

And when you evaluate the reasons from country to country you find a horrid realization. Those countries with installed puppet governments of the west followed the same failed procedures as the west, while the dissenting countries have been dealt devastating results due to sanctions and or elimination from the world society by the west. Thankful for help from countries like Cuba, China, and Russia.

Here in the US, Richard Wolff with Holland Cooke gives us a view of the reality of covid weighed in with

Biden’s new deal: Is $6 trillion enough?

The "new deal" is another large donation to corporate welfare with the same failed results as all the old deals. As I covered with the repo loans here, big Trump tax cuts, printing money none stop day and night, we'll get the same results. This isn't capitalism, this is the state securing corporations and the ruling class at our expense. In other words. State corporate communism. We're being used for one of the largest welfare programs on Earth that we get absolutely no benefit from.
