Fear is what drives the market down. If the SARS-CoV-2 virus was spreading slow enough to allow our medical system to not be overloaded, that fear in the market would go away. If the SARS-CoV-2 virus spreads out of control, the market will continue to drop as the fear grows.
Here’s why conservatives really oppose federal aid for the ‘undeserving’
Somewhere along the way, Republicans went from Reagan’s belief that maybe the government should step off the necks of the wealthy a little, to Trump’s brag that he could shoot someone on Fifth Avenue and get away with it, to the more up-to-date proclamation that the economy should reopen to save the stock market, even if it meant potentially hundreds of thousands of deaths. Some of them really seem to believe that rich people are better than everybody else.
