  No, I think that’s pretty apt. I’m specifically talking about the US. Capitalism won’t fall, but the kind of capitalism we have in the US is literally falling apart at the seams. We know what the solution is to the problem, but it is not compatible with our system. We are fighting it every step of the way. So either the system changes or a lot of people die… which will force even more accelerated change.

      The solution is to test people rigorously and restrict and track their movement. We know this. What comes after? I’m not sure. Guess we’ll find out.
