The Laws Response to the COVID Pandemic
Sally Kohn: Even pre-pandemic, there's this line that's drawn. That says most of these harms are just your problem and we won't even give you something for them,. Let alone try to stop them. And so the pandemic, in this case, is especially worrying because COVID is such an intense expression of the tendency for capitalism to kill.Kohn: It's exceedingly rare that the law or other institutions do anything to actually mitigate or stop social murder. The logic of what's playing out is actually not exceptional but it's the ordinary brutality of the system.
