"You may live to see man-made horrors beyond your comprehension." - Nikola Tesla, 1898. From CNBC, "US weekly jobless claims hit 3.84 million, topping 30 million over the last 6 weeks": First-time filings for unemployment insurance hit 3.84 million last week as the wave of economic pain continues, though the worst appears to be in the past, according to Labor Department figures Thursday.The EPI's survey, which was done online through Google Surveys, estimated that "just shy of 50 million American have lost their job since the start of March." Trump decided not to close the border back in January or December (despite being warned of the virus surfacing in China in November) and then state after state backed by the federal government issued strict lockdown orders in March after the virus had already spread. We're getting the worst of both worlds. Trump closing the border would have been ideal but shutting everything down so aggressively after the virus spread is just maximizing the suffering.
