Quite the opposite. They are direct results of them.... Hmm. China leaks virus. Fauci and China withhold vital information. Democrats lock down the country and people lose their jobs.
Then democrats gave the people who lost their jobs - more money than they made at their jobs, for losing their jobs. Which meant, in order to get a work force back from unemployment - companies at the bottom of the Wage Levels (fast food and other various min wage jobs) had to raise the rates by which they paid people.
It's like you don't even understand cause and effect... Or purposeful Pandemics. The pandemic was planned by your glorious democrat leaders. Now everything is artificially inflated, which just pushes the middle class down further. The Min Wagers food is 50% more expensive, their gas is 33% higher and they fought and won to get 33% more pay per hour and less hours - which means most of them have barely any extra take home pay.
