Corona and What Then?
Victor Grossman | counterpunch.org | 2020-04-03
Berlin, like many of your hometowns, is a ghost city. Except for those offering groceries, medicines or medical care, everything is shut tight. Luckily, no-one here has to stay inside, we can stroll around outside but, aside from families, we may not "assemble" in groups of more than two (if any cops are around). On…

When the Invisible Hand Gives You the Finger – Corporate media shrug as elite declare loss of profits worse than loss of lives
Dorothee Benz | fair.org | 2020-04-01
Why the market fails to provide life-saving goods is not a question the New York Times ( 3/26/20) will be asking. | Since the days of Adam Smith, capitalists have been arguing that unfettered markets are the best way to organize the economy.
