COVID-19: The Fear of the Ruling Class “To Lose Control”
Two examples how the governments view the pandemic as a political and
not as a health issue

You should try and recruit Mike Whitney to your burgeoning Fourth
International. He was a long-time contributor to CounterPunch until it
cleaned house. Your analysis and his overlap to a considerable degree.
Of course, he comes with a bit of a stain now that he writes for the
neo-Nazi Unz Review

instead:
Here’s what I think is currently going on in our country and across much
of the western world. A public health crisis– that was manufactured and
gamed-out before the initial outbreak in Wuhan, China –has been used to
short-circuit long-held civil liberties, strengthen the authority of
political leaders, collapse the economy, dramatically remake basic
social relations, and impose absolute control over work, school,
gatherings and recreational activities. Public policy is now set by
unelected technocrats who operate behind the cover of lofty-sounding
organizations that are entirely controlled by the world’s biggest
corporations and richest oligarchs. President Dwight Eisenhower
anticipated this troubling scenario 70 years ago when he said:
“Yet, in holding scientific research and discovery in respect, as we
should, we must also be alert to the equal and opposite danger that
public policy could itself become the captive of a
scientific-technological elite.”
Bingo. This is the state of affairs in America today. All real power has
been conceded to a globalist oligarchy that operates behind the curtain
of corrupt government officials and public health experts. This begs the
question of whether the hoopla surrounding the Coronavirus emerged as a
spontaneous and appropriate reaction to a lethal and fast-spreading
pandemic or whether the hysteria has been greatly exaggerated (Infection
Fatality Rate is 0.26% or 1 in 400) to implement a transformational
political-social agenda that will not only eradicate democracy and basic
human rights, but also pave the way for dangerous vaccines that will
dramatically curtail population growth, which is an objective that is
widely shared among wealthy elites.
