I am going to ignore unemployment and other safety net. I am going to ask you this.
How many people who wants to work will have a job to go back to even if we didn't go into shelter in place? Disneyland employees? Film Production Crews? Furniture Stores? Casino workers? NBA games? You don't think guests will stop going at some point after 5% of the population is taken out by the virus? Some thinks the problem is as easy as eliminating grandma, grandpa, healthcare workers and the other sick people, but economics is more complex than that. If you are going to send people to their graves, at least make their death worth while.
Also do you get unemployment if you get reduced hours instead of full furlough?
