The government is thinking that lockdown is a measure of controlling the spread of the pandemic, which it isn’t.

The government is thinking that lockdown is a measure of controlling the spread of the pandemic, which it isn’t.
Containing the pandemic requires an investment in social infrastructure that the capitalist class is not willing to make. And so its idealogues are arguing in favour of letting the disease spread …
Which other government would have passed off a slew of concessions to foreign and domestic monopolists as a “rescue package” for the people of the country?
I am ashamed of my social milieu which lauds the leader for dismissing the cataclysmic sufferings of almost 5% of our population as “tapasya”, as if they had a choice.
