If you think this country survives as a functional democracy without an incremental loosening, I don’t know where you’re living. You seem to want to argue with me. Your argument is with reality, with the cards you are dealt.
I hear this refrain a lot: The economy will open when the virus says it can.
Okay. Let me restate that: In 60 more days, at full lockdown, there’ll be no economy, and people will be in the streets anyway, rioting. You’ll have widespread social unrest.
Remember how you wanted to protect lenders? Lock this shit for 60 more days and you can throw your business model out the window.
Clock’s ticking. Pick your devil.

I'll pick saving lives over saving lenders and credit ratings, thanks.
What's the economy going to be like when it's reopened, no one is buying shit and we have exponential growth in the death rate?

And you realize that countries with the earliest most severe lockdowns had low death rates and the ones that just fucked around have had skyrocketing death rates?
Really sorry if preserving life is inconvenient to someone's finances -- Just kidding Actually don't care who goes broke if we are saving lives.
The real problem is that this has never been a functional democracy. If you are rich and can weather the storm you'll get more. If not, here's a dollar, GFY.
And you use the words "herd immunity" like Thanos.
