> Many including myself did try to warn this was always the risk of such a reckless response to Covid, but I suppose it's too late for that now.

It's still hard to fully discuss the overreaction to Covid in many forums without getting shouted down for wanting to kill Grandma, but there are people out there who don't seem to fully grasp that actions taken to try and solve problems can have drastically negative consequences. You can't just spend money you don't have indefinitely without paying the piper and screwing yourself down the road.

Personally, I fear that the emotional reaction to Russia/Ukraine is turning the same way, perhaps with far more dangerous long-term consequences.
