![]() Silvers, Policy Director at the AFL-CIO, in response to this week’s stock market collapse and spreading Coronavirus epidemic, wrote: “What we don’t need is the standard right-wing response to any and all problems—tax cuts for the rich. We need leadership and coordination among federal, state and local governments, between the U.S. government and the Fed and governments and central banks around the world, and with multinational bodies such as the International Monetary Fund and the World Health Organization. We need that leadership now, because once fear becomes contagious, it may be the hardest thing to stop.” Comments are closed.
