So I totally agree that people who work for companies affected by the quarantine should get some type of unemployment benefits to help them through this rough time.
But if you are spending two-thirds of your take-home on rent and don't have parents who can either support you or let you with them then you should probably make some life changes. When I graduated I didn't have a backup plan. I grew up with my grandmother and by the time I'd graduated she'd moved into an assisted living facility and sold her house. And I never would have dreamed of living in a place that would put me at that much risk like San Francisco or New York.
I was happy to move to Houston where even my waiter and bartender friends live very comfortable middle-class lives, and spend close to 25% of their income on rent.
