And as more and more businesses fall short on fixed costs over the coming 2-4 weeks, they'll look to their variable costs. The biggest variable cost for the vast majority of businesses? You guessed it - labor.
The same people squealing about anyone who dares to leave their homes are now sitting there evidently shocked at the fact that tens of millions of people who aren't allowed to leave their homes will lose their jobs.
The staggering naivety should be eye-opening. So many people making these decisions or reporting on them have no earthly idea how 80% of this country lives.
