even the big national brands cant survive being shutdown for more than 30-45 days and the trickle down effect will go all the way to the top and crush the banks....it's coming.

People not paying mortgages, loans etc is absolutely already starting to happen. It probably started on 4/1 and will get worse on 5/1.

I dont what other people are saying but I said 3 weeks ago that if we were shutdown for more than 30 days it would be catastrophic....you can go back and look at my post.

That is my stance.

We can’t stay shutdown until we get a vaccine or definitive treatment.

We cannot survive for that long and come out of it.

We have to find the middle ground.

No business can survive being shutdown until the end of May.

It is not possible.

Whoa..... So let's say we get back to normal tomorrow, and the hospitals get ambushed with new cases. How will that help the economy???? I'm still waiting for you to tell us how we find the HIGH RISK..... Can you answer this between getting buggies out of the parking lot.

Look, I get it.

You're far too shortsighted to see the big picture here.

Continue to live in ignorance.

Peej you don’t know what borrowed deaths mean

Let’s say we did nothing and 2 million Americans died from covid this year

Due to the nature of this virus attacking old and unhealthy people, that wouldn’t mean actually 2 million additional deaths for 2020. It would mean, let’s just say like 500k additional deaths

So, last year we lost 3 million people

This year we would lose 3.5 million people

Need to open shite up and get on with life and repairing the economy. If people die, they die. Nature has a way of keeping populations in check and this is what’s needed. Too many democrats in society.

Well, you are doing the same thing.

You clearly don’t care about the well-being of your fellow man.

Hell, just after the 2008 crash, there was a 40% increase in homelessness in NYC.

This situation is predicted to be magnitudes worse.

They are predicting unemployment shooting up into even the 30s in the worst case scenarios.

That is worse than it ever peaked at with the Great Depression. They maxed at 25%.

Economic destruction destroys families, creates homelessness, leads to decreasing lifespans, and results in deaths.

This is why I cannot understand how y’all are so adamantly against a middle ground.
