We can see that the federal government had a plan for normal
and for super-bug-pandemic
. This is a good thing.
But what about in-between?
We see the federal government in hurry-up-and-wait
mode.
Do we go to a new-normal
or round two of super-bug-pandemic
?
Ok, so we are waiting. Which one is it? We have all this extra in-between
time. Can you tell this is written by a systems and process analyst?
We need an In-Between
option to keep more of the economy open, go back to work and buy our supplies, yet be ready for more super-bug-pandemic
(or bio-weap0n) if needed. We need money flow.
Small businesses are essential too and need to have the option to be open. OneBigMedia
is trying to present small business as non-essential, when small business employs approx 50% - 75% of our population.
In early to mid March, we saw the federal government go into super-bug-pandemic
mode when we all adjusted to the new stay-at-home
instructions.
Now, it's about a month later in April. Our sympathy is with hotspots like New York City and Seattle. And some metropolitan areas and/or neighborhoods may be dealing with pandemic, but many of us just see normal or serious flu symptoms. We cannot stay shutdown forever.
There is an endurance factor here.
We need to protect our Senior Living Centers.
At the same time we need healthy individuals to run their small businesses and sick individuals to stay home. All at once.
The federal government can fund itself forever, or so we are told. However, this is not our reality. We have bills to pay, supplies to buy, kids to educate, businesses to run, properties to renovate or maintain, etc.
We need the big planners at the top to move out of on-off-binary mode and add a new option.
