Disagree on the PPP loans. Except minority owned businesses (of course) have been systematically locked out. Yes it was a scam but anyone with a decent bank relationship got one. Think of your small business tyrants. I’m not saying it saved them by any stretch; but support certainly came to the petite bourgeoisie. And big companies do use lawn services, hvac, contractors, that are petit bourgeoise.
Not arguing the merits of your points - I think it’s right to say that they were abandoned comparatively, but also many were in a position to benefit, vis a vis tipped empppyees who get like $70 a week in unemployment benefits.
The concessions to the petite bourgeoisie was not any loans, it was the blood of the proletariat. They refused to provide assistance to the proles and so we had to go back to work and lost a lot of bargaining power. Hundreds of thousands died so petite bourgeois service czars could maintain solvency.
