The more we isolate, the less our known economy can do.
Is there going to be a New Great Depression?
Would that be worse than a quicker pandemic?
Is it time for America to redouble the effort to build the wall? How many Americans would donate their one thousand dollar cheques to that national cause?
Is C-19 the death of globalism?
Has Japan got it right with their Olympic spirit?
How many countries will attend in Tokyo?
There are so many things we just dont know.
Only God is omniscient.
Has Japan got it right with their Olympic spirit?
YES
Thing aint next thursday.
It’s months away.
Who will thrive?
Divorce lawyers, bankruptcy lawyers.
Conversely, watch birth rates go up as well.
Kitchen supplies should sell well as people learn to fend for themselves.
Alcohol sales will be interesting.
the longest queue I have seen was at a gunshop
It just goes to show what a great job Douglas MacArthur did.
Zoom video conferencing software company.
LOL. The only general who invaded U.S. veterans.
Don’t know much about the occupation after the war.
Seems to have gone well.
There had to be hard liners who couldn’t let go, no?
Any violence during the occupation?
It will not be the death of globalism, but it should be.
I’m trying to use restaurants up until the point a decision (may) be made banning leaving your home. One place we use regularly offered to bring our food to the car door for our pick up order.
If SHTF then I can use my reserve foods in the freezer.
Its funny what ppl think they should buy to sustain. I went out & bought loads of cat litter dog/cat food-cheapest available & frozen meats for one pot suppers.
Not TP.
“...What will survive a Covid-19 induced shutdown of society?...”
What will survive?
Jell-O.
That stuff is Eternal...
All areas of Government and they w ill grow bigger and more intrusive.
Covid-19.
As I understand it, his success relied on getting to know the Japanese and channeling the best of their spirit in reorganising them into a democracy.
At Wrest Point he did the same.
He listened and listened and listened and then modernised.
I dont know why he was less sucessful with desperate WW1 veterans marching in Washington under Hoover.
Is there going to be a New Great Depression?
Maybe, probably not.
Would that be worse than a quicker pandemic?
Probably.
Is it time for America to redouble the effort to build the wall? How many Americans would donate their one thousand dollar cheques to that national cause?
Wouldn’t have mattered. No part of the world is more than 24 hours from any other part of the world. Colds travel.
Is C-19 the death of globalism?
Definitely not.
Has Japan got it right with their Olympic spirit?
Yes. Things will probably be settled by then. No reason to cancel more than a month out.
How many countries will attend in Tokyo?
If things are settled everybody. It’ll be the best Olympics ever. Big global “we made it” party.
Nations and families are the key.
