What about jobs? Can we get along fine without jobs?

What is unknown is how much of the population will change their behaviors. Personally, I’m not changing in any material way from pre-COV but I don’t think the same will be said for the boomers and older.

For all the folks who think we should open up everything immediately, who will be to blame when businesses open but don’t have enough customers to be profitable?
Serious question: Are you retarded?

Meh
I think you will be surprised how many people are ready to get out and support small businesses.
I know I’m going to be hitting up the restaurants and bars a ton

I think if they opened everything back up 100% right now in LA you wouldn’t be able to get a table in a restaurant due to the demand.
People want their normal lives back, not some bullshite fantasy world cooked up by this so called crisis.

Just stop. Businesses have fixed costs that can't be paid for at all right now with zero revenue.

Fear of missing out will kick in a week or two after re-opening and the vast majority of the population will be out (OP not included)
Correct.
Sounds like OP is looking for someone to blame for when one or both of his businesses go under and cannot return.
Spoiler alert, the fault lays at the feet of government not the patrons who were bared from supporting his business by said government.

The only people staying at home are those who are afraid of their own shadow.
The rest of the world is ready to move.
Hell yesterday in Orlando the traffic on Orange Ave near Michigan was back to pre-pandemic levels.
Most people are ready to get back to life.

Do you think people will eat out more than normal or overspend to keep places afloat until some normalcy is reestablished
People are still eating out, it's called delivery and curbside. I guarantee you every fricking place that was open saw an increase in sales when the first round of checks came in. We did, it was out of control. Imagine when people actually have their steady income back.

I think you’re severely overstating the fear in large segments of the population, especially younger adults who drive a lot of the revenue in bars, restaurants, etc.

Baton Rouge. One of which I had to completely shut down during the time of the pandemic and transfer all of my employees to the other buisness which is also operating at 50% revenue.
So you are operating at 50% revenue in a stay at home order. You don't think it will go up once lifted?

They are going to stay home while they continue to get bludgeoned by the left. They are the saddest group of people.

That's a vocal minority that mostly isn't out and about anyway.
Most of the young people who do give a shite about locking down only care because of social media. That stops, and they'll be clinking mimosa glasses ASAP.
