Coronavirus: Why present disaster is made by ruling class
  • Vitaliy_KiselevVitaliy_Kiselev

    What had been only sane way to make any quarantine related to coronavirus?

    Cut, really cut all outgoing traffic out of infected area. China did not do it fast enough (see reason below), but was possible to fix still.

    For all others. Isolate, really isolate, all incoming people.

    Now ruling class tell us that it had been accidental fackup due to lack of information, but it is lie.

    Thing is that you need to look at such isolation form class perspective, and most active trevellers are... surprise, ruling class and their close service people.

    So, ruling class had two options- make major inconvenience for themselfs and their service people, while allowing country to live normally, or make it all nice for themselfs for a while (still nice pair of momths of old life!) and produce staggering armageddon for everyone, while threy will be "isolating" in their big homes and yahts, with lot of hired doctors around.

    You know that they chose, and actually they could not make any other choice, because everyone else does not matter for this "innovators".

    Same way Chinese opportunists now are controlled by large capitalists, hence they delayed reaction and did not close town until New Year, as otherwise people can go against ruling class. And they never tried to contain virus allowing planes to go to other countries.

    What totalitarian horrible North Korea made?

    They asked scientists and just implemented all properly. Isolated all incoming people, for example march 20 they released 2590 our of it. Cut all foreight transport and such. They can do it, as it is no capitalists around, all of them are in proper place where they belong - six feet under.

    Despite western media shock and attempts to publish few quickly made fake "help requests", they still do not have any coronavirus cases.

    @Vitaliy...the flaw in your theory is, that at the same time they were indulging in their traveling, which you said would have been a major inconvenience for them to stop, they were also being infected. In Mexico, nearly all the first 50 cases were juniors coming back from europe. And one of it's first deaths was an local oligarch. So, if anything , this proves that the elites were just as oblivious as everyone else, since they were among the first to suffer.

    @kurth

    I do not have any flaws here.

    As you need to separate individual interests from class interests and you want to mix this.

    For goverments to implement proper measures had been same as punishing ruling class (not just individuals that will be locked!). And this just could not happen, as any clerk know perfectly that will be result if they attempted it (hence all capitalist countries did the same).

    Ruling class is not against some suffering on their yahts, they are ok with small inconvinience. But only if working people will be starving and withut work and money and small busness will just go burst.
