Economic Disparity Created During the Corona Phase

Economic Disparity created during the Corona Phase Death equalizes all at the end But sufferings are hugely different. There cannot be any comparison Between the daily wage earners like Vegetable vendors, itinerant traders And the white collar employees; While millions have lost their jobs and vocation Some are fed and nourished at home Jobs at the organized sector stands secured Their presence or absence in the office is the same. Slack in performing duties they seek Excuses on situational abnormalities They look the other way When millions lose their lives and livelihood Get poverty stricken without help in time. Corona situations make the poor poorer. Rendering them further poor by doling them pittance Leaders secure better positions in the next election process Corona becomes the Crown on their heads. Crowned they appear the greatest saviors Police becomes the most active coordinators. Digitally run are the big business houses, corona blessed Common traders, artisans lose their bread in corona market. Most are suffering economically including the Governments Some are going up fabulously, going to reach or reached The richest global spot monetarily; 573 billionaires added during the two years Fishing in troubled age of coronavirus As it will push 263 million more into poverty in this year. Biggest five energy companies favored by authorities Became the largest profiteer earning $2600 per second Their sharing must be the biggest as selected.
