Millions of people die or they are out of Jobs? What a hard choice to make. The consideration shouldn't be "but what about the economy?". It should be what if we don't do it.
- ArnoVW 6y agoProblem is, it's not the same people doing the dieing. And the dieing doesn't happen right now. Inverse situation for covid. Suddenly there is a lot of money we can borrow from our children, because 'a problem right not' VS 'à problem in 10 years' Not sure how we can fix this 'bug' in our governance model..
- pjc50 6y agoCovid has absolutely shown that there are a lot of people who prioritise "the economy" over even quite a lot of deaths.
- rowanG077 6y agoI would say the opposite actually. We have chosen quite drastic measures in many countries for a relatively small number of deaths. Global warning is not 1% dies. It very well could be 90% and we return to pre-industrial levels of civilization.
