Worse than Corona Virus

Post by mickojak » April 6, 2020, 2:38 pm

I know that the Corona Virus deaths are shocking & heartbreaking,
but if the financial ramifications of the world shut down produce a world wide
depression resembling that of the 1930's, the Corona Virus deaths will be insignificant
compared to the carnage that will endue.

This is currently on the cards and more than possible.

This is why countries have to get back on track ASAP.

Could not disagree with you more.

The argument holding sway at the moment rejects that viewpoint, even in the USA. In fact, apart from the very edges of the US Alt-wing faction, it is not even under consideration.

If people go back too soon, millions will die, not hundreds of thousands....millions. That is exactly what happened with the Spanish flu, between 20 and 50 million. Now the worlds population is greater, that number will probably be surpassed.

You hold the same view as the extreme Right wing, I hope it never gets much consideration.

Perhaps the far right does have the right idea ......

let them all go back to work to save their precious share prices

then when they have all died of CV19 the rest of the world can pick up the pieces and start the long process of the world recovering safe in the knowledge that the [Redacted] gene has been removed from our future human dna

and that unfortunately is the problem

people who are trying to do the right thing will die just as easily as the likes of Mike ashley who thinks selling golf clubs and football shirts is "essential" enough for his workers to risk their lives and those of millions of others (sorry vince but need an emoji showing a cranium and a giant penis protruding)

fantastic, lets get Bannon, Trump, Rand Paul, and every other right wing icon and his mates to work at Maccas, just for a couple of weeks to lead the economic recovery.

Seems like the IMF and World Bank agree with me,
and not the keyboard warriors on Udon Map. (sorry of I hurt your little feelings again)

No they're not, but they do know which side their bread is buttered on and perhaps more importantly, who does all the buttering.

IMF, Glencore, World Bank, Vitol, WHO, Trafigura, ECB, Cargill, OECD, Archer Daniels Midland, WTO, Louis Dreyfuss...

You obviously don't understand the content of this thread.
I'm talking about the financial impact.
And, yes, countries not getting back to normal will make it worse.
Much, much worse.
1930's, here we go again.

My parents explained it to me.
If you think things are bad now, you are in a happy fantasy.

Good luck,

I somewhat agree with Mick here.

Depending on Breitbart for your information is probably worse than CV-19.

So having millions of people die, followed by several more lockdowns in the next 12 months or so (the only possible way to have even a semi health service left, able to treat heart attack victims etc) is not going to wreck your precious money markets?

Company Directors and Senior managers dropping like flies doesnt seem to make a lot of economic sense to me either

1st, not my money markets or precious.
2nd, you just don't understand, you will have no companies to supply you with stuff.

Forget the money markets if the world stays shut down for too long.

It's the worlds people that depend on money and products that will suffer.
And all the companies that employ the world's people won't be employing anyone.

It's not rocket science, but some people just don't get it!
