Destroying the economic lives of 10x (just throwing that number out there) the amount of people who may perish. Should we destroy the economy to save 10 lives? 100? 1000? 100,000? Again, just thinking out loud - not promoting this position. It's just the econ-based part of my brain that thinks about these things in a cost/benefit way..the other parts of my brain think this part is disgusting.
Or the question is whether we are going to preserve the economy, rather than just sharpening up the guillotines.
