Good point on corporate debt. The revolving credit lines are going to go poof like HELOC's in 2009. Surprised banks don't pull them.

The confident immune survivors will be few. The rest of humanity is going to be fearful for a year or more. Vaccine is still a way off. We are not going back to the old economy for a long time. No restaraunts and bars, no stadium events, no crowding into offices, no classrooms.

Will people who have recovered and have the COVID-19 antibodies have to wear a giant "I" or maybe a COVID-19 crossed out in red on their forehead to indicate they have the antibodies and are good to go. Maybe just a big Superman S on their chests?

Besides, we really dont know for sure if getting infected makes one immune to a second bout.

I disagree only because people's appetites for those things outweighs their fear (sure some people will remain scared - just like some people now are totally discounting the idea of following any measures). If antibody testing is available and widespread people who show antibodies are, in my opinion, gonna return to regular behavior. Is it gonna go back to 2019? No. But it's not gonna be empty restaurants and stadiums either.
The idea that people could still get covid a second time is likely a risk they are willing to take (and medically a second bout of covid "should" be less dangerous as the immune system is already somewhat prepared - this is just a guess though- no one knows at this point)

Dude, they just cancelled the Olympics, run by the most corrupt international sports sanctioning body on Earth, and now the NFL is getting nervous. I mean, would you pile into Ohio State stadium with a hundred thousand others in September, not one vaccinated, including yourself?
Edit: a little side note. The U.S. Olympic committee lobbied for 200 million of that bailout money. Sleazy motherfuckers. Like the athletes were going to see a penny.

Now is when it gets dangerous. Slow steady selling during the day that accelerates late.

no I wouldn't pack into a giant stadium - but your stadium example does not equate to people who have had covid / have shown antibodies not going out to a restaurant - and you said "for a year or more". I'm not justifying people's behavior - you and I are just trying to predict it.
Don't get your back up so much just because someone disagreed with you and don't exaggerate your points to come to your own defense. And don't use the decisions of the IOC as evidence of how general society will respond. Or go ahead and do it - I don't care that much about your predictions.

that's my fear.
this isnt' 9-11-2001 or the great recession, it's possible countries will default from this given some debtloads of their govts, when things went south in germany before hitler, there were were stories of neighbors who went out and shot neighbors in the head just because they never liked them and they knew the country was such a mess that nothing would happen to them.TGR forums cannot handle SkiCougar !

Benny gets it.
Also, as a serious question, do you genuinely want things to go back to the way they were? If so, why?
I don't want to see the complete downfall of society, but this strikes me as an opportunity to create a different and better future, instead of trying to return to a "normal" that was sick and depraved and deeply flawed.
