DOOM: IFS calls for a fairer UK after Covid brings greater inequality

[BrilloPad]

Does it hell. The rich snap up all the property at rock-bottom prices.

The 2008 crash spurred on a new round of inequality gap boosting to show a microcosm of what a serious depression would do. Crazy thing is that you've got people living month to month while the long-term unemployed aren't affected because they live rent free and get their benefits increased with no fear of the sack. As long as they look like they're trying to find a job, they're covered.

2008 was a recession. We need a depression. Last one was ~90 years ago.

Mind you it does not help that people flauntilng their wealth get treated like social media heroes. You would expect them to be put in the stocks in Leicester square. I hear of a small backlask during this lockdown against "stars" posting from round the world(Dubai et all). More is needed.
