Youve just described why closing the economy was an act of great evil, not why we should take similar steps on other issues.

Do you really have a clue as to what it takes to feed 330 million people and still be expected to feed the world. Nothing short of amazing what farmers and those terrible enablers in the value chain have accomplished.

now that covid has been turned into a money stream with annual vaccinations and profiteering and the elite scum are safe from possibly dieing from it. the entire corrupt capitalist system is financial enslavement. it all must go. it is beyond hope or repair.

Not exactly a direct comparison, but still good to being up. The distinction between the two is one is acute and the other is a persistent problem that can be addressed whenever.
