Coronavirus This week on CounterSpin: Coronavirus is above all a health story, of course. But healthcare plays out within societies, with economic structures and policies that have a lot to do with whether people get sick, and whether they get care, and where overall impacts are felt. We talk with Josh Bivens, research director at Economic Policy Institute ([link removed]) , about what policy changes might mitigate the disruptive impact of coronavirus and better prepare us for the future.

US Military Planes Also on the show: Economics may not be the most meaningful lens through which to look at US war-mongering. But Pentagon spending is a keyhole to the bigger crisis: a Defense Department that, in cahoots with military contractors, takes trillions of public dollars for endless war-making, with no meaningful check or even oversight. We talk about that with Mandy Smithberger, director of the Center for Defense Information ([link removed]) at the Project on Government Oversight.
