Contagions Large and Small
from Metaphysical Correspondent · host Patrice Kamins
From Walmart to Wall Street, our lives are inextricably linked to China. With the threat of the coronavirus, all eyes are on a possible pandemic. And industrialists, so intent on cheap labor, never considered this disruption in the financial equation. We should NOT be so vulnerable and need a realignment of capitalist principles and economic policy. Saturn/Pluto infers the end of the corporatist era of reckless profiteering. The precipitous decline in the markets is just the beginning of a different kind of global epidemic.
