It’s not. Open the country back up and let’s end the furloughs and get people employed.
I am ashamed that most of you took a stimulus check knowing that you truly didn’t need it. My kids will be paying for all of this mess.

Some of us had spouses furloughed, delays in unemployment

claims, bills that don’t stop and now a reopening plan that’s bringing back 50% of workers at reduced pay.
This depression isn’t going away.

Hold your elected leaders accountable. Remember this when you go to vote in November.

Spouse furloughed, pay cut with cares act, returns to work

with less than half of staff and pay cuts across the board. So much winning.
Keep pumping sunshine, come November, the party resisting stimulating the economy is the party that loses.

If my wife got furloughed, aside from being home a lot more, I'm not sure I'd even know.

quarantine permanent and we can live on govt checks? Yeah, that'll work.
Economics (Remedial Prereq): When production stops, the govt has no money, no matter how many paper bills it prints. The same result occurs if production merely decreases while printing of bills increases.
Philosophy (Remedial Prereq): Hypocrisy occurs when one calls for an action (say, more printing of bills) then complains about the results of that action (say, govt being more than broke, but in huge debt).
One had to understand these prereqs before one will be believed in adult conversation.

Any state employee should be taking at least 2 days of furlough each week. I am not sure why the unemployed should foot the bill as teachers start to go on vacation and as government employees go on vacation and entertaining friends at mansions.

There’s no switch to “opening up”. That is up to the consumer to regain confidence. The irony is that the concept of “fake news” will keep the economy is second gear until there’s consensus on public safety ( or a vaccine). Successful school reopening will be essential to unlocking the recovery.
Leadership and a mostly united country can accelerate that. Excessive divisiveness will prolong it.
