Anonymous Coward User ID: 64698495 United States 03/04/2020 01:13 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Isaiah 6: 11 Then said I, Lord, how long? And he answered, Until the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land be utterly desolate, 12 And the Lord have removed men far away, and there be a great forsaking in the midst of the land. .. Isaiah 5 9 In mine ears said the Lord of hosts, Of a truth many houses shall be desolate, even great and fair, without inhabitant. 10 Yea, ten acres of vineyard shall yield one bath, and the seed of an homer shall yield an ephah. 11 ¶ Woe unto them that rise up early in the morning, that they may follow strong drink; that continue until night, till wine inflame them! … Maybe Covid19 will change the world? IDK but I recently read this and kind of felt my heart sink. .. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 77802060 Canada 03/06/2020 04:50 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Let's see.. the cities become mad-max wargrounds of violent and very territorial gangs with warlords, and the rural areas (far from cities) become relatively peaceful pastoral life (much like the early settlers), and travel between places is a dangerous adventure full of potential brigands, marauders, looters, cannibals and all the usual jazz, very wild wild west style. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 12076182 But what will what's left look like? Of course we are seeing the down side of globalism. But how much smaller will communities be? I think it will be a lot. Smaller, inter-connected communities are more sustainable, use less resources and are generally safer. WILL we see the long predicted City-State concept become reality? I also think there will be even MORE automation as, clearly, our manufacturing is dependent on a healthy population. What are your thoughts? 1918 and 1957-8 pandemics didn't change the world that much. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75916911 Between broken supply chsin, broken contracts and people unable to pay bills if they are quarantine - it will be necessary to get the engines if commerce going again. A reset. I was thinking the same thing. If this is a global reset will we all just lose everything or will they restart it all with debt forgiveness? I think the fear of this is going to cause a lot of problems. |

Shaun Kaven User ID: 71498518 Colombia 03/11/2020 04:36 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Great topic OP - everyone has been so obsessed with the tsunami that is coming in 10 days that no one has asked the question: what comes after? Let’s play out the scenario, first. A massive wave of infections is coming that sweeps through the United States and Europe, then Latin America, overloading hospitals and killing millions. Will the fabric of society hold together? I believe that it will. Even if 500 million did worldwide and 50 million in the US, the human race will survive and carry on as-is. Some countries here in Latin America might collapse into narco states or dictatorships, but I expect business as usual up north... Except. Except if this isn’t just a killer virus that sweeps over us and disappears, but a chronic, seasonal attack that comes back even stronger in October. If that happens OP, all bets are off. Like I told my ex-wife, I said: honey, I never drive faster than I can see. Besides that, it’s all in the reflexes… |
