Redistribution of wealth

WASHINGTON—As the coronavirus pandemic and low oil prices walloped U.S. frackers this spring, Texas billionaires Dan and Farris Wilks got a $35 million relief loan to help one of their fracking companies stay afloat. At the same time, they were on a buying spree in the country’s oil patch.

Since spring, businesses controlled by the Wilks brothers have hunted for deals among fracking firms going through bankruptcy and taken or increased stakes in at least six other companies, corporate filings show. But when it looked like the oil-and-gas industry would be shut out of a key pandemic lending program, they and others in the industry turned their attention to Washington, making an appeal for help in meetings with home-state senator Ted Cruz.

People are starving and the US Government is propping up asshole frackers. PLEASE TAKE CARE OF OUR BILLIONAIRES, RIGHT?

Not in the US.

100% agree that more are starving worldwide due to the shutdowns and fiscal damage caused by the pandemic in general. The numbers bear that out.

Literally correct. I have to figure the OP wasn’t being literal and neither was I. Overall point is same. In totality lockdowns have caused so much more harm. Between world famine, suicides, violence, murders etc....when added up its amazing that our dear lefties seem to not care about this and aren’t able to do risk analysis of both options to make a decision. Only concern to them us literally, stop the spread

Only concern for them imho is the acquisition of power.

He was forced to give it to 'The Big Guy'.
