I feel like you're kind of missing my point. I don't want to downplay the severity of the problem we're having, but this isn't a "corpses in the street" plague, and the core of the economy will not falter (unless we really fuck it up, but we're already starting to get a clue.) The nightmare scenario here is rampant spread, followed by massive spike in demand for medical services just as the people providing them succumb to the virus themselves, followed by the various unpleasant consequences of that (like thousands of people laying in hospital parking lots in tents with improvised ventilators, dying from slow asphyxiation as their lungs rot inside them.) Now, my sister might well lose her job at any moment, and then she won't be able to pay her rent, and then her landlord... is a massive holding company or something based out of NY or S. Korea or something, and honestly who cares what happens to that entity this summer? No sheriff is going to evict my sister and our 80-year-old mother onto the street in the middle of a Goddamned pandemic, eh? The employees of the holding company that owns the subdivision she lives in are in the same boat. As for the owners, well, that's "paperwork": let's keep records and, when the fire is out, we'll sort it all out one way or another. And what do you want Gates to do? Sit in his backyard and rub ashes in his face? Didn't he just pitch in $100,000,000 to help?
