Americans won't not vacation, Ricter. They might do it locally with staycations, they might go somewhere regional. But they'll take their time off. All the better if they do it locally now that local places need their business.
According to Yelp, this is how many restaurants have closed permanently since March The pandemic has already led to the permanent closure of thousands of U.S. eateries. https://www.today.com/food/yelp-fin...ants-closed-during-pandemic-have-shut-t185386
27,529 businesses closed if the article above is to be believed. 4 people died for every business closed, half of which probably wouldn't have died if we hadn't packed them into nursing homes. Consider about 5 per business (which is extremely conservative) and you've got over 100k of people whose livelihoods were destroyed, before you even factor in the greater economy. Well done.
Businesses can and will start up again at some point. Livelihoods are not "destroyed". Dead people aren't coming back. Your whole premise here is ridiculous and immoral. You need to shut the fuck up with this whole routine. Economy over lives no fucking way that's going to happen no matter how much whining you do on here. If they need to lock down again, they will. All the fucking whining you want to do about it doesn't matter. It's just like the healthcare premiums you pay. You have to pay them. It's a reminder you failed as a country to deal with the issue for decades ( Canada has had universal health care since the 1960s ). Pruce must be paid whining on the internet doesn't solve your problem.
Case closed... we hit new corona virus highs with just a few weeks of rioting, restaurants and the beach... within weeks of partial opening. A country full of morons believing the shutdown in our country of the low risk group was accomplishing something other than keeping hospital beds open. The costs... drastic and severe. The gains... gone.
Go ahead and tell your family what a great personal victory it is to see a massive spike in infections and more deaths then were needed. Yes, many Americans fucked this up but not for the reasons you think. Your theories are absolute, utter garbage. Impractical, emotionally based, reflect on your personal impatience with the whole process. Enjoy your "victory". Hell, feel free to catch the virus we will all get it right ? Follow your beliefs.
I have no victory... the case is closed on you morons be able to think the shutdown would make the virus go away.... It did not.
