Could this be the new normal?
This will ignite even more the conversation for a national healthcare system and the possibility of UBI, as guido said.
Not a matter of if, but when.
America is/was woefully unprepared for this outbreak and it's showed. If nothing else, a nation that is by far the richest on Earth should be able to have more hospital beds than prison beds.We don't.
I also think remote work could be the new normal for many companies at least in the tech sector. I like working with my people in the office, but I get more done when I'm in my home office and there aren't any distractions. Maybe it will lead to people considering alternate routes to work like via train, bike, etc. I dunno, we'll see.
