Looks like at least half the money went to billionaires, but since there's no watchdog, that's just an estimate.

Protesters are already starting to die unfortunately even though I strongly disagree with them I don't want anyone else to die that is avoidable and certainly spreading it to our family and friends is there a catastrophic concept. All the experts are saying that there's going to be a second wave and most are saying that it will be worse than what we've already gone through. So right now more than ever it is prudent to get things right before we open things back up.

We were just talking about that at work today.
Some people said they wanted to go to the bar. I don't think I'm gonna be going to a bar for the rest of the year, minimum.

Enlil said: That's a nice story, but it's just a story. There's nothing stopping landlords from demanding full rent payments now. As far as unemployment "going on the business tab," that's still a very real issue either way, but that won't matter when most of these businesses are going to be bankrupt anyway.
The truth is that we don't yet know who is going to pay for what. Businesses harmed by the virus may or may not have insurance for that, regardless of whether there's a shutdown. The Federal government can't mandate specific procedures to state unemployment systems, although it can provide funding with strings. Each state ultimately has to decide how it will respond.
The move to end the shutdown has very little, if anything, to do with shifting the burden back to the people. It's about fear. A lot of people have an intense fear of the unknown, and the unknown now surrounds us.
From what I have been reading, business insurance is refusing to pay. Go figure.

We can't go to the bar in Illinois. I really miss my joint. It sounds like the place will survive. I wouldn't really worry if it was open. It seems like I'm the only one there who doesn't do shots, because everyone keeps trying to buy me one. I'm no doctor, but it seems like enough alcohol would reduce transmission of the virus.
It did worry me the last weekend before the state shut down. I wondered what it would be like. My chick friends were hugging me and kissing me on the cheek, and I was thinking we really should hold off on this.

Getting all the ladies! It's going to be very interesting to see the data in a year just to see how early it was actually getting passed around.
PA just moved the soft reopen from May 8 to May 1. Construction, car dealerships, and a bunch of other shit will be allowed to open as long as they follow CDC guidelines. Hospitalizations here have bottomed out with just 8 in the last week. Keep in mind Pittsburgh is in the second most populace county in Pennsylvania.
Fingers crossed for bars and restaurants to reopen mid May. I need a draught beer.

Yup. This is common when large catastrophes happen. Insurance companies don't pay. It'll be interesting to see how it all shakes down.

Whats the legal rationale, act of god?
-------------------- “I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”

Georgia is reopening certain businesses including massage parlors, if proper distancing is followed.

From everything I have read, a second wave is inevitable. I guess a decision whether to keep people from getting sick or keeping people alive(those susceptible) will continue throughout 2020. Dude, this is gonna tap my reserve funds.....what a clusterfuck.

I'd plan on a third wave as well, if I was you.
Actually, I'd plan on coronavirus becoming a seasonal thing. Flu season in the winter, Corona season in the summer.

I wonder how much of that money will be invested directly into automating the jobs that can't work during quarantines. That'd be a good sell to shareholders right now
