Yeah, the difference now is we are too tied to them economically.
Honestly, I think history will show the biggest failure of this was actually shutting down the economy. Rosey the riveter and Uncle Sam are turning over in their graves. It's like going to war with no ammunition. We could have shut the borders, as we did, and mandated business develop social distancing action plans without shutting down. I was not employed prior to this, but signed on with Amazon since they hired an extra 100,000. There are hundreds of workers coming in each day, but they are managing them differently and providing ppe. We have three cases of the flu since I've been here. Not really a big deal. Every incident is followed up by cleaning teams.
We could have done this differently....shutting the economy down turned this into a failure.
