Pandemic shutdowns wiped out small businesses and lined the pockets of billionaires and Joe Biden is shocked, shocked I tell you
· Sep 17, 2021 · NottheBee.com

You remember well the horror of last spring, when government-mandated COVID-19 shutdowns brought the economy to a screeching halt, effectively criminalized most consumer behavior, and saw countless small businesses shutter their doors permanently due to a catastrophic loss of income—all while billionaire heads of major corporations saw their profits skyrocket as they thrived amid the sudden collapse of their competition.

Well, President Joe Biden apparently just found out about this devastating scenario, and let me tell you, he is shocked about it—shocked and disgusted, even!

"Everyone who was a billionaire before the pandemic began—the total accumulated wealth beyond the billions that they already had has gone up by $1.8 trillion. It's simply not fair."

It is so encouraging to see that Biden gets it—that the totally unprecedented and destructive lockdown tactics of the COVID crisis have made the rich richer while slashing the wealth and security of the middle class. It's good to know the president has our back. It's not like he was at the forefront of the lockdown zeitgeist a year ago, right?

Oh. Er...

Don't worry, though: With the economy reopened, you can get back to work and start earning your life savings back right away! Well, as long as you submit to Biden's vaccine mandate, anyway.
