2008 numbers. I hope things get better once covid-19 is contained, because 2008 and the several years that followed sucked.

[Thethirdpew]

Nah.

 

[RennisDeynolds]

And yet the market went up , fugazi shyt going on

This is only the begging, things will get worse in the weeks to come. I heard that Corona has a ridiculous growth rate and we about to surpass China for that #1 spot


How long can that "essential" workforce last when they start getting sick

Bruh thats an understatement. I graduated HS into that mess and couldnt find decent work so college was coming out of my pocket. Still owe the government 3 stacks. In my entire working adulthood, including my most gainful last few, Ive never gotten my returns. All student loan payments.

This gonna be a cluster fukk for a while.

Smh at nikkas still treating covid-19 as "fearmongering"

Bruh, its madness. They dont have to be scared shytless, but this is a different level of event. They dont acknowledge the toll its going to take in the long term and act like anyone who acknowledges it is crazy.

Atlanta reported yesterday theit ICUs are completely full


But "just the flu"

P.s. a lot of people don't know how to properly read numbers. They don't even understand the basic fact this is a new virus and takes time to propagate and the flu is already established in the population. But we've had this conversation tons of times already. Just keep this in mind, the deaths from this have doubled almost every two days. Unless something unexpected happens expect that pattern to continue. We haven't even reach the peak yet.

somebody, in America, will come up with a vaccine/cure by the summer.

Just in time for Trump to be re-elected.

 

[Uno Venova]

nikkas really think shyt is just going to go right back to normal quick so they can have a "Lit Summer" aight

 

[RhymesWell]

I'm just happy my job is Depression proof but it's about to get fukking weird out here in a few months when people begin to realize there is no true quick fix for this thing. I truly believe we're headed for a neo depression.

Good point that no on is talking about. Unless you went thru Katrina or hurricane season you aren't prepared mentally most likely. Lot of people think this will be over in a couple weeks so they're fine with staying home. But things will be worse in a couple weeks. There is no quick fix or "wow that was crazy, glad we're back to normal now" moment. Trump out here giving people false hope.

$1200 one time payment isn't gonna fix this. Too many people are fukked, financially. Too many businesses are fukked. We focus on people but imagine being a small business owner. You closed your shyt down due to the shelter declaration, you aren't paying employees, you don't know when you can reopen, and you don't know how quickly you'll be able to access that money from the govt. It's not just gonna be a simple direct deposit for businesses.

Entire restaurant industry has been destroyed. Lot of people out here with no job and April rent coming up. Many won't have a job before May 1st either...
