Printing more money
We are too early into the crisis[/quote]

This.  Both my neighbor and I were at the same grocery store this morning and we commented to each other how surprisingly busy it was.  I am worried about what is going to happen this fall and winter when peoples' money starts running out and they don't have room on the credit cards any more.  I think we're in for a really hard crash.[/quote]

This.  The shopping centers/districts in my area have been busy for months.  People have a lot of spendable cash.[/quote]

That's the entire point of the extra $600 unemployment benefit!!!! If the stores were empty and closing down one by one, would that somehow be a better scenario than giving unemployed people enough money to have something extra to spend? That's so foolish. We NEED people to be spending now, and if they don't have the money, they can't do that. If all those people lose their extra spending money, imagine what will happen as all those stores go belly up. It will be terrible for all of us.[/quote]
