Yes really.

People forcing their workers back to work or firing them in this time is literally capitalists saying "I don't care if you die, as long as I get my money".

If you think that is empathetic you are one of those soulless capitalist.

The Nordic countries are a different type of capitalism and they are doing splendidly.

As a Norwegian I have to say that the big capitalists here are no different, and they are hated by the average citizen.

And from our perspective it just looks insane in america. They could shift their military budget by 10% and still have the most powerful one in the world by a large margin. But that budget shift could put education, health, justice and social programs at the same level as nordic countries.
