To The Eagle:
Our country has been at war for almost 20 years (Iraq, Afghanistan, Lebanon, etc.) but few of us noticed or cared because credit was free-flowing, there were no shortages, and the stock market was booming.
Now we are deeply concerned with the war against the covid-19 virus because it affects us personally: We encounter some shortages, the sorcerer Trump’s emblem - the stock market – is being eviscerated, and workers are losing their jobs.
Our response: Fear, hoarding, whining, and a demand for government bail-outs even by citizens who formerly were strongly opposed to socialism! Hmmm.
