This is no laughing matter anymore and not something that fat scared seniors living in gated communities in S. Florida can't just poo poo away.
My office is in a tourist area and the property manager on the same floor is already dealing with a slew of calls from people who don't know how they're going to pay their April rent. These people work in the restaurants, bars and stores around here that tourists normally flock to. Now the tourists are gone, the bars are closed and the restaurants are running skeleton crews for takeout only.
Some of these people have children in their care. Others are local college students just trying to stay afloat while they finish their studies. Yet others are older people who rely upon these jobs to supplement their Social Security. All of them are now at risk of losing their homes and their cars. How will they even make their car insurance payments in order to stay on the road? It's a fucking mess already and it will soon get many times worse if these people can't get back to work.
it is really time that we start re-thinking this.
