His Excellency had a good column on the ongoing lockdowns which are devastating the poor and benefitting the affluent published a few days ago in First Things. The column included this very powerful and timely statement:
"...today the powerful push around the powerless: They issue orders devoid of scientific justification that they themselves do not follow, orders that ruin the lives of working-class people. Resentment increases among the oppressed masses, while credibility diminishes among the hypocritical elites. This, of course, has occurred throughout history. It is the stuff of which revolutions are made, not all of which have had happy outcomes."
