Capitalist PRIVATE PROPERTY right stymies Corona Epidemic fight




     It is quite obvious to any real democratic socialist that capitalist private property rights - including " intellectual property " rights - are sabotaging the collective fight against the Corona virus pandemic.  The capitalist inspired legal system is ruining millions of lives - the American- Way- of Life Gone- with- the- Wind - in the fifth month of the public health crisis. It does seem that a nasty virus has wrecked the Empire

            PRIVATE PROPERTY considerations should not overwhelm the  general welfare , the collective good.

             Just consider the nursing home scandal : MOST of the dead are nursing home residents as helpless as Nazi concentration camp prisoners. Long before the Corona pandemic conditions were deplorable in the FOR PROFIT health care nursing homes and hospitals.

              I am not surprised that workers at Bannister House and Charlesgate nursing homes are about to go on strike. The hypocritical owners and management shed crocodile tears for the elderly residents. WE THE PEOPLE should support striking health care workers.

             What does Governor Gina Raimondo propose to do with the thousands of homeless people in Rhode Island.? A democratic socialist government would sacrifice  capitalist landlord rights FIRST !
