The pandemic seems to be exposing the wealth inequality, which I think is the root issue here. The haves have even more and the nots bore the brunt. Judging by protests, approaching breaking point
Pandemic also brought more wealth inequality. Tourism, restaurants, brick and mortar shops, malls, theaters, airlines, etc. are affected by no malicious cause but because of the virus. The wealthy class did not cause this.
While, I think the wealthy should be heavily taxed and poverty must be abolished, I don't want to live in a world where there is zero wealth inequality. Also, wealth is not a zero sum game.

This is what the wealthy want you to believe. There's no scientific evidence that places with lockdowns did better with regard to either economic or health outcomes; the lockdowns and economic destruction they caused were entirely unnecessary.
