Interestingly though, the pandemic did allow some of those things to occur! Some people will always take advantage of any arising situation and we saw that over the months of lockdowns and closures of businesses. Large corporations were allowed to continue opening and trading whilst small businesses were forced to close, many of which subsequently went bust. People lost their jobs because they refused to be coerced into taking medical and pseudo-medical treatments for something which clearly wasn't nearly as dangerous as we were being told. It's a shame that many of the anti- crowd went off into cloud-cuckoo-land because it made it easier to ignore the things that the pandemic facilitated.

Personally, whenever things go wrong or the sun doesn't shine or I burn supper, I now like to blame Bill Gates. Because, why not? I used to blame Elon Musk but he's apparently one of the good guys now so...
