Under capitalism, man exploits man. Under socialism/communism, the reverse is true.

What was supposed to be Tesla’s big day joining the S&P 500 index, got usurped by Sunday’s news out of London of a new mutant strain of SARS-CoV-2 that’s up to 70 percent more infectious.

Worse, it was discovered in late September, recognised by mid November as being more infectious, yet not publicised until December 19th.  Who knew what and when?  Did Her Majesty’s Government attempt a cover up?

Why didn’t HMG impose its own travel ban in mid to late November as a much needed precaution?

By not imposing an earlier travel ban, the new mutant virus has probably already spread to other countries and with the Christmas – New Year celebrations coming up, will probably cause a surge in Covid-19 illness in January. 

Needless to say, the stock casinos took the news badly. This is not the start to 2021 most stock gamblers have bet on.
