I suppose it's to be expected that disdain for the well-being of the economy at large is much higher among people who are comfortable. The people who go online to post memes about how "I'm not going to die to save the Dow Jones Industrial Average!" are generally less likely to be among the 3 million who applied for unemployment benefits last week, and a lockdown is much more fun from the grounds one of your sprawling mansions than from a tiny ill-maintained NYCHA apartment with restless kids.
