Will the Capitalist West Learn the Lessons of COVID-19?
Coronavirus shows the state-sponsored corporate capitalist West the error of Its ways
by David Sims
THE SARS-Cov2-19 pandemic has, or by now should have, taught the capitalist West a lesson about its unwise business model, which was designed for maximum short-term profits, but which was always rickety, dependent upon perfection in the balance of supply and demand, and therefore was vulnerable to disruption. A little less short-term profit in exchange for greater resilience would have been wiser by far. It just so happened that COVID-19 was the cause of the disruption that brought the house of cards down. But if the coronavirus hadn’t happened, then something else would have come along to disrupt things sooner or later.
The following things are now understood to be very bad ideas.
- Economic interdependence (i.e., economic globalism)
According to reports, China cut off the West from medicine, from the precursor chemicals from which medicine can be made, and from materials intended to prevent the spread of infection and to give life-support to sick people. China’s agents in other countries intentionally spread COVID-19 and China’s government gave those agents propaganda support. Chinese people were sent into other countries to buy up all the face masks and mail them to China. China began exporting faulty, defective medical supplies to other countries, calling them humanitarian gifts, so that the coronavirus would spread all the more rapidly when those supplies (e.g. face masks) didn’t work. [Even if these reports turn out to be inaccurate, or partly inaccurate, it is still indubitably true that when China needed emergency medical supplies, vital items naturally were withheld from sale to other countries. — Ed.]
- Just-In-Time supply practice
By abandoning the use of warehouses to hold stock intended for sale in the near future, vendor businesses (such as department stores) became dependent on a flawless delivery of new stock from their manufacturers. Any disruption on the supply side, or any spike on the demand side, would result in immediate shortages of goods, some of which might be necessary to human life. Warehouses are to economies what capacitors are to circuits. Capacitors involve a bit of energy loss, just as warehouses involve a bit of financial cost, but they impart a great deal of resilience to their respective physical/financial systems. They are, to put it mildly, worthwhile.
- Jews controlling the mainstream media
Some of us have known for decades that there is, among the Jews, in both their Marxist and their Zionist camps, a malevolent elite that desires the destruction of Western civilization and, also, the extermination of the White race. They’ve controlled the mainstream media from the earliest years of the 20th century right up to the present: the press since 1910, the movie production houses since the 1920s, the television networks since their appearance in the 1940s, and (mostly though not entirely) the major book publishing houses. With their propaganda power, these “elite” Jews have led the American people into one costly and injurious folly after another for more than a century.
- Monetized debt finance
The greatest of the follies just mentioned in item 3 is the Federal Reserve System, a financial system based on usury that was designed to cause a general failure of the US government on account of an unpayable interest on the aggregate public debt in a little more than a hundred years, and which would permit these “elite” Jews, in the meantime, to suck our financial strength away like a gang of vampires feasting obscenely on a helpless victim.
- State sponsorship of a capitalist elite (i.e., the Too-Big-To-Fail doctrine)
This bad idea will be very difficult to fix because it is built into human nature. Capitalism begins as a laissez faire, or free market, system. Laissez faire capitalism is a wonderful economic system. It rewards hard work, smart work, innovation, risk-taking, conscientiousness, delay of gratification, and other virtues. But it always comes with a time bomb. The moment the richest capitalists in a free market system realize that they have become rich enough to buy the law, to corrupt the government, and to recruit the state’s coercive power to their own purposes, they never hesitate. And thus, what had been a free market is transformed into a state-sponsored corporate system, which is an entirely different economic system with none of the laissez faire system’s virtues.
Some means of preventing that time bomb from exploding, some way of cutting off that fuse before it can detonate the powder, will have to be found.

If it’s too big to fail it should be broken up under anti-trust law or nationalized. Free-enterprise with consistent, sensible regulations is great for startups, small and medium sized businesses.
Imperative that we ditch the debt-based monetary system. Maybe the Douglas Social Credit system should be considered.
Douglas Social Credit is the answer.
Really, really nice post with an original, succinct way of looking at our dilemma I haven’t seen before. Very well balance and unbiased in its perspective. THIS is the path we should explore if we want a virtuous outcome. I would also ad that some means of limiting man’s implementation of “high tech” (whatever THAT means) must be imposed. Which of course means destroying much of what exists. We ARE NOT MORALLY CAPABLE OF WIELDING THIS KIND OF DESTRUCTIVE/ENSLAVING POTENTIAL IMO. Back to the late 19th to early 20th century I say. Plenty of horsepower there to keep 10 billion alive (if we employ true Permaculture as well).
Cheers!
This sagacious explanation is not surprising nor should it be dismissed as another conspiracy reaction. Since all things in Washington dc emanate from the love of money and the necessary lies to justify it . So the possession of our mind is necessary . Seems most voters are effete to war and indolent to pain of others since after 75 years of constant hostility (undeclared war) interrupted only by intense , internal strife , who even search for the casualty names of the ultimate war against evil !? Futile anyway if you can find it in a newspaper. Is not peace more unbearable to powers that be as sunlight to the vampire? Yet , they have succeeded in the calm hiatus after football season to frighten america . Immuring their… Read more »
Coronavirus is a new variable, and the different forces will try to use it for their benefit, the UN and Plutocratas already want to tie it to climate change, the nationalists to maintain borders and stop immigration. Corporatism is of Jewish origin. The analytical perspective on my part regarding the Jews is as follows: They are a parasitic race that uses and drains the wealth and economy of the nations by enslaving them, for this it must weaken their host as much as possible, then they must corrupt their ethnic-social structure- cultural-territorial, the Frankfurt school was created for that purpose. Now the parasite like a tick by sucking the blood of its victim weakens it, even the victim when getting sick could die, but the objective of the parasite is… Read more »
Can the jew be responsible ? It has been a constant with the same condemnation throughout recorded history. They have not changed today . I searched for biological term for parasite’s parasite and found: politician. Despite the monopoly of jew in every venue and institution neither the church nor government accept and admit their omniscient influence and deliberate destruction of all life. WHo are the real enemy? Politicians have never been more willing to persuade that this new crisis is real . The small business is being ruined and items usually unsought like baking yeast has disappeared from market place and is available at black market prices. Gasoline is fallen 20% Crisis is time for jew to speculate and while we wonder at another mystery the jew is smiling.How long… Read more »
Also at the internet “train station” to commute here I observed the frequent advertisement for another holycost fable . Is the jew worried this epidemic crisis might compete with his holycost racket?
Almost no one sick in my region yet everything was stopped, if you fall from a ladder with corona thats counted as a corona death.
This may have been intended as a genuine wake-up call, but it misses the mark widely. The consolidation of commerce was intended to promote what you see, rule by the few. It was intended, it was carried out and it happened. We are here. The Corona virus is a hoax. Experiments carried out and reported on by Lester and Parker demonstrate that airborne transfer of sickness is not probable. A virus is not a living thing and therefore cannot infect people. Sickness itself is the body’s natural rebellion against invasion by toxins which may be a living thing like bacteria, but fought off by good bacteria. A healthy body fights them off. And the toxins were acquired by ingestion from other sources than other people. Fortunately the body does not… Read more »
very interesting. Many I see with masks may demonstrate if you are correct that it is easier to become ill through suggestion than infection from pathogen.
Orwell/Eric Blair wrote of his experiences in India, one of which was that he knew of an Indian punkawallah, so offended by an insult, that he died…his mental immune system was vulnerable to…insults.
I find amusing how a simple virus spreads from every end of the world, not even Ebola and Aids spreads that quickly and they are both deadly. Let’s not rule out Communist China and its Allies Russia, Brazil, South Africa and India. In the bigger picture, jews cannot really destroy the US’s economy completely, now I won’t say they won’t try to just to get what they want. It happened in the 1930’s when they were trying to destroy Hitler, Washington Post owned by a jew went bankrupt just to smear Germany, and he was happy to oblige. Right now, most of the credit has to be given to China and Russia, they want to be the new rulers of the world, but it won’t happen, and this will not… Read more »
Are the casualties being buried because cremating them would take too much time and the USA does not have the capacity to cremate so many victims of COVID-19? A few years ago Russia did not have the capacity to cremate the 500 victims of a heatwave. Only magical Narzies were able to cremate 1,300 people per hour.
Hahaha! Bingo!
Is it even possible to back away from what has been created here without cataclysm? I think not. It’s great to hope for the best, but in this case I would urge preparing for the very worst. For many it will not be possible to make the needed adjustments, and for most of us they will be radical departures from previous modes of living. Provided that complex life can survive on Earth afterward, we will want our kin to be the survivors.
The way certain jews are acting in this pandemic is also a lesson to all. “The sick list also includes Omar Sattar, 33, a Muslim firefighter who contracted the coronavirus last month, nine days after three Hasidic teenagers allegedly sneezed in his face as a taunt. The FDNY did not report the apparent hate crime to police, a law-enforcement source told The Post” and “When firefighters call attention to Hasidic community members disobeying the quarantine, they are told to ‘shut up and do your job’ “, are among other outrages at https://nypost.com/2020/04/11/brooklyn-firehouse-crippled-by-covid-19-as-11-test-positive/
This issue really needs investigative reporting, on cultural behavior possibly causing NYC’s high illness rates.
