Is it more likely that your government is hard at work thinking up ways to beat the pandemic, or tweak laws and financial arrangements so the people

in charge have their wealth bailed out while everyone else get wiped out?

Tweak them? Why the need to do that...? You are watching history being made here. Big pharma and big tech have made their move in the coup of the 1%, with big media happy as punch to be invited to the party. Most of the one percenters have recouped their losses from the previous recession during the pandemic. The working classes cannot make the same claim.

The economic issues will continue until the middle class is eliminated. The poor can just continue to burn down their own neighborhoods. It creates an excuse to take the money that is being given to them in the appearance of being humane and benevolent and generous, so you may further tighten control on them in the name of protection and safety. Get them to buy their own cages.

It's kind of ridiculous anyway. Humans living today are the Neanderthal of yesterday. If you're reading this and live another 25 years, you're going to bear witness to the birth of our replacement, the new homo sapiens. And like the Neanderthal did before us, we're going to hand it over all the tools that we have, and it will be much better than we at using them, just like we were before them.
