You getting down voted for this comment is a perfect encapsulation of what happened: the elites used the pandemic it concentrate wealth and destroy the small and independent business and capital owners, and then turned the lower and non-owner middle classes against these same people.

Gotta give it to the elites: they know how to manipulate things.

It blows my mind how people cannot see this is what has happened. No conspiracy theory needed - the rich and powerful just got a whole lot more rich and powerful by continuing to act like they do while everyone else was placed under effective house arrest.

You forgot to mention the inflation that is skyrocketing.

That doesn't hurt the rich who have all their funds parked in assets and investments.

That hurts people who deal in cash which is....the non-rich.

The inequality will continue to grow and the ignorant will continue to believe the news media like religion.
