The lockdown affecting large segments of the American public to try to curb the spread of the coronavirus is likely to last 10 to 12 weeks, or until early June, U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said on Sunday.

*Edit: I didn’t watch the interview, but apparently Mnuchin said the stimulus was meant to help people over next 10-12 weeks, not that the lockdowns would last that long. The writers seem to think it is implied that means the lockdowns will last that long.

At least we are learning that 90% of TD is comprised of selfish assholes who don't care for their fellow man.

I’ll bet you they do not last that long. Even places offering to go will close. Most bars will close. Small shops will close. Small law practices will close. Small clinics will be forced to close

No way it makes it that far. Looting and civil unrest will cause them to make changes.

The stock market will crash and we’ll be in our second Great Depression.

It’s hard to care for your fellow American when you can’t care for your own family since everyone is laid off

And here’s the kicker. We could be going right back to the lockdowns somewhere around September.
