RE: We're gonna have to open the economy back up, even if people die
I think this is going to have huge ramifications long term. The problem is people are generally quite stupid so this could take longer to fix than it should. Financially most businesses will be ruined if this continues and who knows what the answer is. I see the numbers being rather high and don't think we are only talking a few thousand in each country that will die. If everyone was sensible then yes life could just carry on and get back to normal.
take a look at the article that I just resteemed on this subject, that was extremely well-written and researched. It was a real eye opener for sure.
I get that but think it is actually going to back fire on the Chinese big time. The eggs in the one basket comes into play and can see many countries now going to start manufacturing what they would normally have imported. This is going to happen and have already seen two programs on that very thing which I think is fantastic.
as a redneck that would love to see USA be a bit less dependent on other countries I like the sound of this. I just don't know if the market will tolerate it because people are so accustomed to getting their goods for really cheap. Imagine if the price of cell phones doubled.... people would quickly forget that we should be shutting out China in that instance...
