It's papering over the cracks.
Typical populist idea which doesn't solve the real problems in society
It wasn't meant to solve the problems in our society though was it? It was a short term aid to help businesses which it certainly did whilst we returned to a more normal way of life. Perhaps it will turn out to be only a short term fix if the virus returns with a vengance but doing something was better thn doing nothing.
You've not offered any alternatives yourself, just criticised. Tell us what you would have done?
