How much economic damage are we dealing with here? What’s this summer going to look like?

Summers looking more and more like new money hahahaha gold backed currency when? Maybe Treasury created crypto?!
Being lazy lol pretty much taking a vacation. I think it could be good for some people. There are going to be lots of Coronababies born come December 2020/January 2021

Even more wealth redistribution to the wealthy and devaluation of labor. Oh boy, what a paradise indeed.

Not like wages weren't low enough already.

>boomer parents still ask why I am buying 100 acres in new brunswick and a cabin kit

10 million without jobs is worse than 1 million dead

change my mind

There will be more people homeless than actually living in the buildings. You think it's bad in cities now? LOL, you've seen nothing yet.

I have a strong feeling that a lot of people “did the math”, talked to their bosses, and were “laid off” purely for them to reap the enhanced unemployment benefits and the companies will snap a lot of them back up if the timing of things works out.
The gibs provided were unironically what caused the unemployment numbers to spike to that extreme level. Don’t get me wrong, things are bad, but it’s not as devastating as the unemployment claims indicate as long as people can start going to work in the next little while.

No way dude, they "did the math" that the business not being able to pay them for at least a month without customers was less income than they would get on unemployment? The "gibs" didn't encourage anything, these people are literally making no income and are thus unemployed.

We're heading headlong into a depression and I'd be surprised if half the employees at most places get invited back.

siding with this. kinda like 2008, things are going to be palpably worse by a degree, but it's not going to be a huge breadline in the streets kinda situation. these are manipulated once-a-decade events for the gov to ease us into whatever you want to call it. fascism/authoritarianism/1984/etc

slow boil, remember? we'll be back out shucking and jiving for 15 dollar an hour sustenance-tier shop jobs asap.

This. Everything is going to be fine. Go back to work goyi- I mean citizens.

I live in GA and I was furloughed from a giant company til june 1st.
