Coronavirus Is the Perfect Disaster for ‘Disaster Capitalism’

Naomi Klein: Coronavirus Is the Perfect Disaster for Disaster Capitalism

History is a chronicle of “shocks” – the shocks of wars, natural disasters, and economic crises – and their aftermath. This aftermath is characterized by “disaster capitalism,” calculated, free-market “solutions” to crises that exploit and exacerbate existing inequalities.

Naomi Klein: The way I define disaster capitalism is really straightforward: It describes the way private industries spring up to directly profit from large-scale crises. Disaster profiteering and war profiteering isn’t a new concept, but it really deepened under the Bush administration after 9/11, when the administration declared this sort of never-ending security crisis, and simultaneously privatised it and outsourced it – this included the domestic, privatised security state, as well as the [privatised] invasion and occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan.

The “shock doctrine” is the political strategy of using large-scale crises to push through policies that systematically deepen inequality, enrich elites, and undercut everyone else. In moments of crisis, people tend to focus on the daily emergencies of surviving that crisis, whatever it is, and tend to put too much trust in those in power. We take our eyes off the ball a little bit in moments of crisis.

Ivanka Trump’s brother-in-law, Joshua Kushner owns Oscar Insurance and has also received funding from Trump adviser Peter Thiel, who could face a loss on his investment if Oscar Insurance gets overhauled. Trump has promised to repeal and replace Obamacare, a vow that could threaten Oscar Insurance, a $2.7 billion technology startup co-founded by Ivanka Trump’s brother-in-law, Joshua Kushner. Oscar has also received funding from Trump adviser Peter Thiel, who could face a loss on his investment if Oscar folds under a Trump-led overhaul of the 2010 Affordable Care Act. Joshua Kushner is the younger brother of Ivanka Trump’s husband, Jared Kushner, who could end up as a top White House advisor. Thiel, the co-founder of PayPal and a Trump supporter, is among the investors who have provided more than $700 million in funding to Oscar, according to Crunchbase.  Both Jared and Joshua Kushner are graduates of Harvard, the highly selective Ivy League college which received a pledge of $2.5 million from their father, real estate developer Charles Kushner. At Harvard, Joshua Kushner was roommates with Alexander Blankfein, the son of Goldman Sachs (GS) CEO Lloyd Blankfein.

COVID19 CureVac VACCINE NOT FOR SALE TO DONALD TRUMP

Germany confirms that Trump tried to buy firm working on coronavirus vaccine – The Donald Trump administration offered “large sums of money” to get exclusive access to a coronavirus vaccine being developed by a German company, Die Welt
Trump offered $1bn to Tübingen-based biopharmaceutical company CureVac  CEO Daniel Menichella to secure the vaccine “only for the US.
He soon after resigned <GOT FIRED> and the founder Ingmar Hoerr took back over the company. Head of CureVac‘s biggest investor: an exclusive contract with US is out of the question; “We want to develop a vaccine for the whole world and not individual countries”.
If CureVac finds the solution for a covid-19 vaccine they are going to share it with the whole world. This makes Trump‘s intentions quite obvious. Making money with the health of people during one of the biggest humanitarian crisis.

Germany’s Health Ministry told Reuters that its spokesperson had been quoted correctly in the newspaper article, confirming that Washington had attempted to take over the biopharmaceutical company. Government sources indicated that Berlin was now offering CureVac financial incentives to remain in Germany.

Berlin stopped Washington from persuading a German company seeking a coronavirus vaccine to move its research to the United States, prompting German politicians to insist no country should have a monopoly on any future vaccine.

As if allowing non-Americans to just die is going to make him look like some hero at home?

By the way: Germany has plenty of testkits. Just ask for it….
