    Obviously (fucking painful this actually needs to be explained to some dipshits) those with kids and elderly/vulnerable aren't forced to go out if they still don't feel safe. Even when they open up most of the non essentials there will still be a lot of people making that decision. Tech employees and other industries that can will stay remote for as long as possible.

    So people claiming this is a death knell are full of shit.

    you mean - just like the flu season? that is kind of scary to try and teach a society coming out after a pandemic

    I like to tell customers when they do that shit in my line at work that these are paycheck to paycheck people that are scared and broke as fuck. The unemployment checks aren't coming in and they want to go back to work. There aren't a lot of tech jobs in middle America where people work from home, have money and can continue to hire laborers to put on a roof, build a deck, grade a driveway of whatever people are doing while sitting at home and looking at stuff they hate around their house. A little empathy goes a long way and this country is so divisive to one another that sometimes I can't help but make people feel a little bad for living in a liberal bubble here in Western Washington. I'm a pretty political straight shooter. I stay right near the middle and points made by both sides are points I can agree with, but when someone who lives on the far right or left starts blathering on about the other side I lose my pleasant grocer facade. Put people back to work, that I can get behind. Fucking Kriest.
    I kinda got a boner reading that.

    Not a gay boner. Let’s be clear about that.

    I agree that it’s a very stupid piece of rhetoric, but literally no one believes it and no one really thinks the economy should be shut down to prevent every death. The actions taken with respect to Covid-19 were in the face of projections of 2 million deaths. That would imply tens of millions of cases as well. That kind of outcome would also have been devastating to the economy.

    It would also have overwhelmed our healthcare, which is overwhelmed as it is with only a fraction of the cases we would be seeing had we done nothing.
    cooped up at home seems to be taking its toll on you.

    Except no one that looked at like 3 data points believed that.
    There is actually very little reason to disbelieve it. In any event, most governors and Daddy believed it.
