The first of April is gonna be rough. I hope relief checks hit before then, if they don't a lot of people are going to miss rent. The financial chaos of the last few weeks will be nothing compared to the economic hell that hits right around the time the hospitals are overwhelmed.

We need to be enact anti-eviction and anti-utility shutoff orders immediately. Somebody's got to lose here, and it had better be landlords and the power companies. If not, expect riots, and rightfully so. Our joke of an economic system is about to come back and bite us hard.

If you're watching the DJIA and S&P500 more closely than the daily unemployment filings you're not looking at the right numbers. The Fed can do a lot, but it can't keep waiters and cooks from missing meals or getting thrown out on the streets. It's gonna get really, really grim.
