Serious question, you have to pick one, what do you pick?


I'm not going to be the guy who has to tell a quarter million grandkids that I made the decision to off their grandparents to avoid a spike in the unemployment rate.

So bring on the 20% unemployment rate. I've been poor, I've been well off, but I've always been able to look at myself in the mirror when I got out of bed.

When it comes down to a choice between life and money, I'm going to come down on the side of life every single time.

That will kill more people several times over because it won't go away for years.

But how many will you drive to suicide, addiction, etc because of the unemployment?

I have watched you time and again make a fool of yourself during this whole ordeal; and today is no different. 20% US unemployment rate will lead to far more deaths than 200K. Not to mention the increase is crime, drug abuse, etc that comes with that level of unemployment. How would you explain that to the millions of kids affected by that???

Then you can explain to them why they have to sleep under the overpass.
