Nobel Prize-Winning Economist: U.S. Needs A Vision For Post-COVID-19 Economy | The Last Word | MSNBC
These are very dark times indeed. Let’s face it, Covid 19 is not letting up and we have no idea how to handle it.
The money needs to go directly to the people. Not to corporate hoarders. Money to the states and local government. No action and we get a big depression. Can we do it , yes it’s doable.
@Mark Campbell WATCH AND LEARN https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cxXSbZGA658
@Paul Kersey Dr Faiki knew about this epidemic three years ago but you have CNNitis
@Gary Rosie CNNITIS? I like that.
@Mark Campbell IT’S HAPPENING NOW https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l4mrTNPCWVI
Uh, yeah. Plans and vision have never been Dumpster Fire’s thing.
Dr Faiki knew about this epidemic three years ago.Why didn’t he plan on warning the world.
Gary, Your brain-dead.
@john smith Don’t believe me? I can prove it.I have the video.
@Gary Rosie for one thing, COVID-19 didn’t exist three years ago. The clue’s in the number. Second, Trump’s team ran through a scenario very similar to this during the inauguration and blew off the exercise. They were told this could happen, and chose to ignore it.
@cybogoblin The numbers are cooked thanks to Cuomo killing thousands on purpose.Research, I don’t have time for this.
Make the rich richer in good times and bad times
Those poor people
Eat the Rich.
If you kick the people when they are down enough they don’t get back up to take YOUR money. Capitalism at its worst.
Gotta make sure the stocks stay high dont want the rich and wealthy to suffer
Post covid? Slow it down first! April 19th 40,900 Americans had died, May 19th 93,500 have died. It’s far from over
That is in 81 days since Feb 29 2020 if you double that in 162 days its Nov and the total may be 200k that is shocking in united states of America
Mr Nobel prize winner
Becareful what you said, Trump is going to tweet his anger at you and may try to steal your Nobel Prize Medal
Just a warning, if I was you, I would lock it very very securely
Republicans are #serialkillers con artist
The countries with the best Covid-19 outcomes are the countries with the best governments.
…thank you!
Australia shut down because WE CARE. Trump said “it’s a hoax”, fires inspectors, then promotes protesters with guns, injecting bleach & crazy drugs.
Trump delay U.S.A. = 93,000 dead.
Australia acted fast = 99 dead.
Agreed. China got a good government, the leaders are promoted by merits, like in a big corporation. It seems to make sense. They call it full process democracy.
Jeff Smith- Most of them r led by women too!
@Jane Doe and Australia, led my a man, followed the lead of NZ 😉
America spent more money than other countries, with worse results. Why? Mitch and his gang made sure the money went to their buddies without oversight.
You have nailed that one.
Nailed it , Moscow Mitch and trumps resorts and hotels wants all the money with zero oversight because he fired all the inspector general‘s that were supposed to oversight all that money
t’rump’s vision: Let the virus wash over the country killing a million people and pray that the economy recovers so he can get re-elected.
More likely he’ll try to send us in directions were he’ll say the electoral college votes can’t be made/trusted , and the governors of each state will cast their 1 vote.

Back here in reality your DemocRAT and Progressive buddies are why C O V I D 19 is spread so bad in New York, New Jersey, California, and the U.S. generally, while Cuomo was calling the China travel ban racist in his state of the State address as they deliberately spread the Pinko pox.

In fact without Progressives we might have been able to keep the ChiComCrud out of the country for months or maybe until a vaccine was developed.
Don’t forget Nancy Pelosi helped spread the Commie Cough in California too. https://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local/nancy-pelosi-visits-san-franciscos-chinatown/2240247/
Also Trump called inaccurate media coverage a hoax not the virus, the media promoted drinking bleach, and the woman who took the fish tank cleaner is under investigation for poisoning her husband.
@David Grover Your rebuttal to self proclaimed loud mouth Aussie (her description) Colleen Kelly does nothing to refute the facts she stated. My country followed a similar response and trend to our Australian neighbours.
New Zealand acted fast = 21 dead.
Casting aspersions onto Progressives or Democrats changes nothing in regards to Trumps slow reaction to this pandemic and the corresponding consequences. As all countries have had to endure from similar delayed responses.
Irregardless quoting articles from a website that is known for promoting falsehoods and conspiracy theories does little to further your argument.
Wikipedia states: “WorldNetDaily (WND) is an American news and opinion website and online news aggregator which has been described as “fringe” and far right as well as politically conservative. The website is known for promoting falsehoods and conspiracy theories”.
When you do so much spinning about what Trump has said; all you do is dig a deeper hole for yourself.
Joseph Douglas, Trump had put in the China travel ban before the first death in the U.S. the day after this.
World “Health” Organization. January 30, 2020
“The Committee does not recommend any travel or trade restriction based on the current information available.”
8 Days after the first diagnosed U.S. case.
At a time the Chinese, WHO, and the CDC were still delivering unfathomably bad and outright false information. ( Or are you going to tell me that Al Jazeera is a right wing conspiracy sight too?)
What WND reported is a matter of the public record.
In conclusion in the U.S. the political left owns the failure to contain this from their destruction of the U.S. quarantine system in the 1970s and 1980s, to their war on boarder controls, to officials of the New York Health Department telling people to go to Chinese New Year Celebrations without taking precautions, to their Unconstitutional actions against the rights of citizens during this debacle!
Deal with It!
Someone take him, this is far too much damage we need good leaders and this is just the stuff we know about. I fear it is.
Well Biden Wont Be A Good Leader….Hes Senile
@MIKE BARAN I’ll take it….got to better than the current senile one.
@MIKE BARAN I’d say most of the people who voted for Trump are senile regardless of age.
@john smith Ur high
Americans dont listen to anything. If you ain’t first your last 💩💩💩
“Where there is no vision, the people perish… Proverbs 29:18
We must not forget the inequalities and injustices that have been uncovered by this catastrophe. America must learn her lesson or revisit the consequences. We need a vision and a plan for a “WPA” type program to get the unemployed back to work when unfortunately they have no jobs to return to. He’s right we need to rebuild towards a more independent cleaner way of life. Our earth has been trying to heal herself as has our bodies. Let’s work to facilitate the healing process in people as well as our environment. Americans’ aren’t lazy people, and will work, they just need a “New Deal.” We must have innovative, positive leadership to accomplish this goal. 🕊️🇺🇸
We pray for vision and hope. Americans’ must have a change of heart and appreciate the resources that we have to work with and use them to build a better world. This time of isolation has “turned the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of the children to the fathers lest we perish.” Malachi 4:6 (KJV)
Whoohooo, go Kiwis, thank god we have Jacinda and not the orange sociopath conman and his enabling 38% 😀
Unless over 2million people die trump will think he has done a tremendous job!
He will figure that they were Democrats and Trump haters, so good riddance.
The two problems, in my view: GOP refuses to budge off base, which is giving money only to their rich cronies; Democrats keep giving in to GOP demands.
First, in order to have a “Vision For Post-COVID-19 Economy,” you need a real qualified president!
People tons of jobs in solar installations, Also tons of jobs in retrofitting building so they’re more energy efficient, there is more jobs in clean energy then there is in all of oil and gas and coal combined
