I don't need any chart to conclude we're in one of the biggest crises and contrary to what you say, I don't think it can be said at any point we're coming out of this stronger than before. We're not recovering everything, we're at the beginning of a terrible crisis.
Wait for September and you will see what I mean. We will need several months to see the result and if the lockdown ended it doesn't mean everything is back to normal
Protecting the economy by printing money backed on debt? Are you sure it's something protecting?
If the economy is protected why are there several companies announcing either bankrupt or lay off thousands of people
First thing , This is not even in the category of one of the biggest crisis ever .
Do you know HIV/AIDS , killed 36 million people back from 2005-2012 ? Whereas Flu pandemic killed 1 million back in 1968.
Corona Virus right now killed 533,773 people in the whole world. The only problem we have is it's
Infectious nature. Corona Virus is not the worst but unfortunately people do not want to wear a mask , even though we are well aware that , masks can prevent the forthcoming wave .
I do think we should also stress on the point that *It could very easy have been prevented* , right at the source , it would have just stopped at the epidemic then . The carelessness of the government plus the unnecessary restrictions that China did put in the beginning when they were asked by various countries , for the evaluation of the COVID-19 , did prove to be fatal to the whole world.
Even now we have a new swine virus with pandemic potential and I do think it is not the worst crisis ever but can evolve in one , if they do the same mistake with this virus , plus if the countries like India and China , continue to increase their border tensions creating another War , whereas if America continues to attack it's citizens with so called *peaceful* tear gas , continue to allow police brutality, soon enough people will overthrow the government.
We might as well get ready for a World War + pandemic + government against it's own people, hopefully the peace treaty won't be broken and things will stay normal, New-Normal.
