The left is so good at this. They mess something up bad. And then blame it on businesses. And finally, use that as an excuse to mess things up even worse. Same thing has been happening here in America for the past 40 years. The pace here is just a little slower. But it’s exactly the same MO with exactly the same effect.
It amazes me that so many people do not see it. In the past, the left has been especially getting vote via handouts, but they are starting to venture into even more radical territory. They are trying to fit the square peg in the round hole. When the left tries to alter reality to avoid facing the failure of their policies, that’s when people really get hurt. An example of this is the rationing of health care to solve the medicare crisis. It’s brutal and ugly.
This reminds me of how Jimmy Carter tried to solve an economic crisis when he froze incomes (for anyone involved with government) during double-digit inflation. Yeah, that’ll work - not! I’m still suffering from that one.
