Sounds good until you realize that the most prominent response to the pandemic exacerbates it. Besides if we got rid of all rich people it wouldn’t help the poor one bit.

Not a surprise given the unprecedented nature of the pandemic. It was best policy based on incomplete science/data but that means flexibility is essential like when it comes to new evidence on social distancing.
