Requests:  0 Summary:  During the COVID-19 epidemic, hundreds of thousands of deaths were caused not by the vicissitudes of nature but by the callous and opportunistic decisions of powerful people. Nichols shows how President Donald Trump, his inner circle and others downplayed the crisis and mishandled the response. Profiteers fed at the public trough and added pandemic profits to grotesquely bloated fortunes. There must be accountability-- and Nichols is not afraid to name names. -- adapted from jacket   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 352.35097 Ni Checked In Add Copy to MyList
