scoff at me if you will but i see the capitalistic economy as being part of the problem. i dont worry so much because i have a decent amount of money in savings. and yes i feel bad for people, but not so bad when they waste every dime they earn on frivolous, material bullshit.

I don't think you do.
Unlike yourself, many people will not receive unemployment, or stimulus money.
Small businesses are going to have a difficult time drawing customers in when there's a supposed 'deadly' virus going around.
A lot of people are scared, out of their minds. Fearful to go to hospitals for basic checkups.
And again, land lords gonna want that money.
Unless minimum wages is raised to like, $25/hr, times are going to be rough for a large percentage of US residents.

I don't think anyone's arguing that point man.
We're saying where are these people going to go to find income...if everyone else is essentially in the same position that they are?
This is why depressions are insidiously deadly. Everyone's earning power, first and foremost, is decimated. This creates a massive negative feedback loop that fucks everybody.

Americans are so fucking deep in credit card debt.
Saving is a mythic unicorn for maybe %60 of americans, if not more.
If I didn't sell drugs, I wouldn't be able to save much.

I'm amazed you see this side of the coin, yet simultaneously deny the economy is doing something bad as a result of people needing to rely on credit more and more since 2008.

Working three jobs is financially irresponsible?
You should stay on unemployment. Maybe invest some of your savings and see how long you can ride it out.

the usa government can help people in need. we have the ways and means. if congress needs to take a pay cut, then so be it.
there will always be work and jobs. i know this pandemic will limit those options, but there is so much wealth in the usa that no one has to go to bed hungry.. even if you are sleeping on the street.

I wish you the best brother, but I respectfully disagree and I hope you come around to seeing your own disconnect with reality before it does permanent damage to you or a loved one(s).

ive never needed to rely on credit. so sorry if i dont see that as a valid point. ive worked minimum wage jobs my whole life. there certainly were times where i didn't have extra money.. but i never used credit cards because i had everything i needed.

You are literally proving to this thread that your life is a microcosm of what you claim doesn't exist/isn't a problem, dude...

Yes, because you have officially swallowed and digested the narrative you've been fed.
This is what myself and others are trying to tell you is the main flaw in your stance here.
It doesn't matter what you think will happen, it's what actually happens, and history shows what's ahead isn't merely a scrape on the knee and we all go on merrily.
