they’re dumping cattle, pigs and thousands of gallons of milk, crops included... months from now this is gonna be felt...
Hate to admit it, but this is exactly why all the lockdowns are going to be over with by the end of May.
Look, bottom line.........this shit isn't sustainable.
We can't have 4 million people per week filing for unemployment and expect the country to still function properly.
Granted, the reasons most of these nuts are giving for wanting to re-open the country are bogus..........however, they are right.....but for the wrong reasons.
The country operates on tax revenue.
Tax revenue comes from the income generated by people who have jobs.
The more people who lose their jobs..........the less tax revenue there is to go around.
So, all this talk about giving people $1,200 and 100s of billions of dollars to small businesses for payroll protection (or whatever it's called).........all of these things are ultimately paid by taxpayers.
And, again, if too many people lose their jobs.......there's just not going to be enough tax revenue to fund all of these programs.
At least not on a long term basis.
We can print all the money we want, but our money is only as good as our workforce.
So, if we print too much money and the workforce keeps shrinking...........it's going to gradually undermine the entire system.
That's the mentality these politicians/world leaders have right now: which is to save the economy/financial system.
Simply because there hasn't really been any good news about the virus that justifies ......."going back to normal."
