The possibility of crime skyrocketing. I’ve already noticed a lot less police presence in many neighborhoods. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poverty can turn good people into criminals. I don't think it's a reflection of the country- this is why crime is higher in areas with high poverty. 1 I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network.

And the news media’s constant non-stop 24/7 fear porn..err...coverage along with a lot of the gov ads and depressing corporate ads will take a huge toll mentally on many, weak or strong because you can’t avoid it unless you shut it off completely. With estimates of 30-40% US unemployment...how many will resort to violence to get necessities and how many will just give up and harm themselves. Fuck the virus, fuck the non-stop hysteria and fear-mongering from politicians and corporate-run media....we didn’t get here because our ancestors doused themselves and everything in hand sanitizer and false-comfort of distancing themselves from their friends and family during the Black Plague and 1918 flu pandemic....their immune systems are why we are here today. The infected elderly and immune-compromised need to be protected, yes, but if we all sanitizing ourselves physically/social/mentally is far more threatening and dangerous.

Restaurants and Bars have lost over $25 Billion in just the past few weeks....many, MANY whom work in the service industry will not be eligible or getting unemployment...many are hard working undocumented and they too also work the farms getting food to our table....What will happen to them? How will they react and survive ? The “stimulus” claims to help small businesses with loans WITH interest to cover 2 months.....but Wall Street/Corporations/Banks are getting essentially a blank check with 0% interest.

Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted March 31, 2020 Author Administrators Share Posted March 31, 2020 It is not sustainable to stop work production for several months, it's just not. Regardless of what you feel about the virus itself, at some point we have to face facts, and the facts are the country needs to start working again. Otherwise, what is happening in Southern Italy, is just a glimpse of what's to come. 1 I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic.

Senior Member bismarck Posted March 31, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted March 31, 2020 I think if the economy really starts to stagger and we're unable to transition jobs online, we may experiment with a stratified quarantine where we have those at risk remain on lockdown, but even then.

There's not an easy way out of this one. No doubt a bad situation, at some point, we need to provide mass testing, instead of this 2 trillion stimulus package nonsense that is going to benefit execs in corporations, why not dump that into testing, so those infected can quarantine themselves and whoever lives with them, and those not infected can go back to work.

The Reality-show host in chief and the cronies he put in his cabinet have just last week decided to give 100% exclusive production and sales rights to the life-saving anti-viral drug that can fight this threat to 1 pharmaceutical corporation for 7 YEARS, it’s quite obvious they don’t give a shit about saving lives...only those whom will be able to afford it. Satan himself couldn’t have made a better deal. Edit: just read that the drug company was so shamed by critics for attempting to profit from the exclusive monopolistic lucrative deal that they backed off... https://www.statnews.com/pharmalot/2020/03/25/gilead-covid19-coronavirus-orphan-drug/ Edited March 31, 2020 by CosmoKramer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
