Voters on the left are only slightly more stupid than the people they vote for. Ten months of lockdown and look what happens:

World witnessing greatest rise in inequality on record… Billionaires thriving as poor suffer…

Sharpest Rise in Poverty Rate in More Than 50 Years…

If you stop production [ie enforce lockdowns on our economies] you stop consumption, and that is the order in which things happen. And this is just the start of it.
