I don't want to get political so I'll keep this short and sweet. The government caused this. If they determined you weren't an essential business, you were done. The PPP allowed a lot of companies to stay in business that would have gone out otherwise due to the lockdowns. Were there abusers and fraud, yes. I can't deny that. But it saved many. Someone else paying a loan YOU took out on your own that you shouldn't have is different.
