Capitalism Is in the Coronavirus Crosshairs

Gavin Newsom is so excited is because he’s openly talking about how coronavirus is an opportunity for reimagining a more progressive era. Meaning, “All right. Coronavirus. An opportunity to be even more socialist, to be even more liberal.” And I’ll tell you, while all this is going on, folks, we cannot ignore the politics of this, because the left politicizes everything, and they are off and running politicizing this.

Trump and his team are dealing with it as a medical issue each and every day at this briefing. They’re dealing with it as a modeling medical issue. But the left is getting hysterical in its drive to socialize the economy. We’ve got Pelosi — grab sound bite number 25. To illustrate the point, Nancy Pelosi this afternoon on Andrea Mitchell Reports, MSNBC, Washington. Question: “Do you think more needs to be done in the next stimulus package now that we’ve seen these appalling historic unemployment numbers?”

PELOSI: Yes. Yes, indeed. And not only do I think so. You can just ask the Democratic and Republican governors. I’m very proud of my governor, Governor Gavin Newsom in California. In this bill we want to include some infrastructure that directly relates to the coronavirus crisis. For example, clean water. Clean water is a very important part of our infrastructure proposal. Community health centers. There’s funding for additional money for construction, rehabilitation, et cetera, of community health centers. Internet, broadband. Look at how we’re all dependent. And then the grid that makes so much of that possible as part of that.
