Small business owners have been forced into a terrible position, and my heart goes out to them, but it isn’t JUST the fault of “democratic favorites.” New Zealand shut down businesses for a few weeks, restricted travel, and is now Covid free. As we’re not an island, we probably wouldn’t be as successful as them, but we might not be leading the world in our percentage of Covid cases. The fault lies on politicians (regardless of party), but it also lies on the people who refuse to make a few sacrifices (like eating outside) to save lives and businesses.
