Yes judging from the responses that seems to be what happened.
Maybe I could compare it to car accidents - we don't ban driving because the costs would be enormous.
I hope that doesn't spawn replies about self-driving cars...
- anoncareer0212 6y agoHey, we love discussion on HN, we honestly want to hear more from you - but we try to avoid the sort of meta-conversations where people end up reading their interlocutors as a united opposition with strawman positions. You should totally reply to them with more info about what you're trying to say, they're probably being honest about being confused :)
- aaomidi 6y agoWell, the difference between this and your examples is that it was a novel situation. The question always comes to would you rather over react or under react to a novel pandemic? It's also interesting that this conversation about economics isn't spreading more towards alright now that we have this lock down are there any monetary policy changes we can make to allow us to adapt to this? Many other countries have dealt with the economic consequences of the lockdown better than the US, despite being poorer countries.
