Have to say, the various bans and mandates don't appear to have properly taken into account the likely multi-generational impact of destroying our own economy. I don't have the right comparative scale to apply, but is (potentially) saving some number of lives worth reducing the standard of living for the rest of the country for a couple generations? And concurrently drying up the economic resources to address the next pandemic?
We simply can't keep throwing trillions of $$ at even significant problems. At some point another problem will arise that can be solved by $$ (my opinion is that there is not much elasticity in COVID-19 risk v. the $$ being spent on it)....but at that point, we won't have either $$ or more borrowing power because we destroyed our economy in 2020.
