Exactly the majority of those who seem to be joining this bandwagon are on the furthest edge of right wing ideology. It would concern me, as do the reasons they give being almost the same whoever speaks them. Dare I say they are an echo-chamber of opinion.
It concerns me just as much that the Lockdown Junkies are the usual authoritarian big state suspects too.
The answer lies somewhere in between as it has since March. Selective lockdown of the most vulnerable (if they choose to).
We don't have the welfare system to support that, a market based approach wouldn't work unless there's full compensation enabling those who do want to lock down to actually do that otherwise you're restricting choice through finances.
