    Well, except that it doesn't address economic costs at all. The costs being balanced here are not easy, but just ignoring the cost - especially to working-class people living paycheck to paycheck - is awfully blithe.https://twitter.com/neeratanden/status/1242299520274366465 …

        And the “2 million lives lost” is a wild ass guess. Obviously extrapolating hugely exaggerated death rates based on under reported infections.

        What’s odd is that you’re ignoring the fact that Congress - right now - is working on a $2 trillion Econ package to redress the Economic costs. But can’t really replace a life once it’s lost.

        The numbers are also crap. The average insurance company payout for a death settlement is a much better indicator for what the average life is 'worth'.

        Also it does deal with the economic costs. It’s telling you 2 million dead equals one year’s GDP. Which is economic cost of ending social distancing.

        That’s why we have congress. We don’t have to let people become immisersted. We are the wealthiest country in human history and interest rates are zero. @JimPethokoukis says we need 3-4x just for small businesses and at least 2x more overall. And he’s right.

        Wasn't he complaining just the other day about people analyzing data in areas for which they aren't experts?
