Y'all assured me two weeks ago that the economy would bounce right back after the quarantine.


Do you doubt that now?

considering nobody can answer when this dumb shite is going to end, every bit of doubt is warranted.

It's almost as if people have different opinions.

It'll take a year or more to recover from this.

People generally care about $ more than the lives of others.

Says the guy who admitted to wanting to ban fried foods, alcohol, cars, etc.

The only thing you care about is you.

2 weeks = could bounce back with minimal damages

Over 2 weeks = we are in for scary times with many small and large businesses potentially never coming back

It's not your fricking job to decide how to protect someone's life Comrade Stalin.

No, all your posts imply you think you know what's best for people and have no problem using the government jackboot to make sure they know it.

absolutely. I wish you no harm, but I don't really give a shite about you or yours if it means ruining me financially and destroying everything I've worked for. DWI.

This shite about worrying about you is just that- shite. I wont go out of my way to harm you, but you nor your family's health is my responsibility. I'm responsible for me. Not you. Stay home if you feel its safer, but don't try to stop me from taking care of myself and my family.

I recently learned a majority of the business debt in this country is rated BBB and below. This indicates to me that with the economy being slowed down to a halt, there is going to be an abundance of bankruptcies and layoffs on the horizon. It's inevitable destruction.

Financial darwinism bro. These small and large business smoke and mirror shams should die and never come back.

Sorry your wife can't throw her Rodan and Fields parties during this time of uncertainty but you still have to make her monthly payments. Have her apply for an SBA loan, R&F and the other MLMs are included.

Yes, once this is over people will be used to staying at home and growing their own food. Nobody will start buying anything any more. There will no longer be an economy because one will not be necessary.
