Concerning. 😬 https://twitter.com/NBCNewsNow/status/1245848540183695360
I'm increasingly worried about this -- actually not just about this but this in combination with the indications that this will take many more weeks (months?) of pain to get out of the woods. But the kind of thing in this video is what topples governments if it goes on too long.
My sense of how much longer is partly informed by the latest AEI roadmap. ( https://theprepared.com/blog/the-aeis-road-map-to-reopening-details-whats-next-for-america/). AEI is pro-business, so you'd expect their roadmap to be pretty aggressive. But here are the triggers for even thinking about loosening restrictions:
So it feels like weeks at a minimum until we're out of the woods over here. This means we're either going to have massive money drops to individuals -- way way more than the piddling means-tested checks floated so far -- or we're going to have scenes from a RATM song.
Note that this is all assuming the only problem is no grocery money, and that people can still buy groceries. I worry less about the possibility of bare shelves in the very near-term, but that is still a serious concern.
