When media says Trump deciding between saving lives or saving our economic order, be very clear: our “economic order” contributed to this and this is the perfect time to reinvent it! For the majority, an economic order that does not value people first creates not order but chaos.

Don’t you mean the Chinese economic order created this?

In many ways, apparently yes. Our own economic order left us vulnerable, however, by depleting resources that exist for no other purpose than guaranteeing our safety in the midst of a storm.

Trump is giving up on capitalism because it can’t produce the tests and masks we need. Only in Trumps evil is good world is it the American consumers job to buy what companies are selling instead of companies selling us what we need.
IOW, our economic #Order's what caused our current #EconomicCollapse. We should let that sink in. &then we should decide on whether or not we want "incremental change" & go with #StatusQuo when we go to the ballot box, I mean #VoteByMail, or follow our hearts & #VoteForBernie !

If it weren't for Nancy Pelosi's 1400 page shopping list add on that she tried to tack onto the emergency relief bill; items which weren't even related to helping workers, tax payers and small businesses, it would have already been passed.

Exactly! People should always be valued first.

Our version of predatory capitalism has already proven its failure during this crisis. It depended on consumers to buy crap they didn't need. People are just realizing they have literally bought into a way of life that gives nothing in return. Our labor = hoarded wealth for 1%.

Key words here are “when media says”. Say it again slowly
