I predict in a week or two there will be massive pressure to reopen the economy and if governments refuse there will be a lot of people that reopen their business anyways.

Has crime decreased since the lock down?

I'm surprised there is a lot more pushback for the simple reason there are a lot of people allowed to work who are really essential. Many factories open that are no more important than some factories that are closed.

You have to consider this, the only people who will be eligible to draw regular unemployment bennies, are people who have been paying in, long enough to be eligible.
Under normal circumstances you are 100% correct but we know normal has left the building.

One thing if for certain, this deal is uncovering a shite ton of drama queens.

could you imagine rioting to open your business to find that most of your customers aren't showing up?

I have been working out of my house for a long long time, own a business, and my wife has been sent home.......we are just going to hang out, and get on with life in a few weeks. I am not going to riot.
One thing that has been revealed is that with the gyms closed, the fitness levels of the runners/walkers in my neighborhood have increased like 10 fold.

If you were one of the numerous business owners who will go out of business because of the stay at home proclamations, you’d probably be singing a different tune.

The longer this drags out the more likely it becomes a matter of "when" and not "if".

I thought the first stimulus checks to us tax payers were going out the week of April 6th?
That's direct deposit. But if you have outstanding child support, you don't get one. Then the checks will be mailed. Via USPS, which says they are almost broke, and record numbers of carriers are calling in. I just got a bill in the mail yesterday, that was due March 1st.
Good luck getting someone on the phone when you don't get a check in 6 weeks.

If the same virus was going around without closures, and LSU was hosting a regional, your arse would be clamoring for a ticket.
Keep deluding yourself.

Would I be upset, dejected, sad, even mad.........but I would not be violent. That I s the entire point of this thread.
See how the drama ensued? This thread had a topic.
