Yeah, poor people are fucked.. As much as I want to hope, it will be the poorest who will pay the greatest price. It has always been true for almost every major crisis in the world...
Everyone's fucked. We'll see mass migrations and mass deaths among poor people. and then the civilised world as we know it would end because it is sustsined by the labour provided by poor people.
There'll be no one to do the lowly paid but extremely important jobs. Will the wealthy grow & pick their own crops? rear and slaugter their own meat? fish fr their lobsters? or clear up garbage? or operate the sewage treatment plant?
Hopefully we can stop slaughtering animals full stop.
