During WW1 and WW2 people went off to war to die or at best come back scarred from the experience, or people sent loved ones off to war. They grew victory gardens. They lived with shortages.

Lockdown is great if you work from home and can sip wine in the garden. Not so attractive for small businesses owners watching their livelihoods go down the drain or if you are stuck in a tiny high rise flat with 3 kids.
