The entire political establishment is in agreement on the need to enforce the pro-corporate policy of “forever COVID,” in which the working class and broad layers of society as a whole are condemned to unending waves of mass infection, death and debilitation with Long COVID.
What’s a million deaths anyway when you have corporate earnings to pump.
The line goes up.
US politicos brag about our economic recovery after COVID lockdowns like it’s not just one point along the optimization curve between “economy” and “deaths”. We had a strong recovery because we sacrificed (and continue to sacrifice) people.
