Beyond CV19 - How will the World Change?

Once this is past (and it will pass), what changes do you think we'll see in our day to day lives?

My thoughts are:

More and better on-line education opportunities.

Business will adapt so that more "work from home" opportunities will exist.

More services and entertainment will switch from local (live) to internet and streaming......

The trend to a cashless society will be accelerated.

More home deliveries services.

Tittleist will get a girl friend or a dog.

PolsonGriz will get a real job.

In football, poor defensive player or plays will be termed, "social distancing" defender.

The Bobcats will still suck, even worse than before....

I also believe we'll all be subjected to more talk of global warming as many theories claim that as the tundra thaws, viruses that are tens of thousands of years old laying frozen in the arctic will be released. This may just be a warm-up to future frequent events.....
 
Runs on banks
Civil unrest
Riots in the streets
Looting businesses
Food shortages
Supply chain breakdowns
Militia’s rising up :?:
 
maybe people will take a look at the obviously fabricated numbers put out by the CCP, and finally figure out that we need to begin to disengage with China until they have a different government.
 
Let's hope by starting with a win against the Cats, their streak is a sign that the end of the world is coming
 
Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies! Rivers and seas boiling!
40 years of darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes!
The dead rising from the grave!
Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria!

Nice work, Victor. :clap: :clap: :clap:

Not much anyway. Evidence: all the college kids (young men and women, of course, but still acting like "kids") who are basically blowing off the crisis. And many others not in the "at risk" age group are not doing much besides hoarding (if that).

Those of us old enough to be in the at-risk age group have been through this (or something very like this) before. Not much changed then, and I don't think much will change this time around. Still, something we cannot now guess may change. RE some items mentioned by Vi ...

There may be incremental changes for on-line education, that's been in a state of flux anyway, so it will be hard to sort out impacts there. It will still be difficult to handle courses that require tasks in labs or studios. (Sorry, but computer simulations are a crippled approach because they seldom get "messy," so you cannot learn how to handle "surprises.")

"Work at home" has already been around long enough that its strengths and weaknesses are pretty well known. Since people are being forced into it this time around, I doubt that we'll learn much new.

I actually see something of a backlash for some kinds of entertainment. Part of the fun for an entertainment event is the shared experience with those around you.

More home delivery may be a good prediction, if vendors can keep the costs reasonable. There's lots of new players in that area and this may give them the opportunity they need to reach market segments that have ignored them before.
 
Irony: Steve Daines, shortly after his latest ad attacking “radical“ healthcare proposals and “socialist” Democrats, will vote in favor of a socialist stimulus package.

Irony II: tax the shit out of us, take our money, and then return it in the form of stimulus and get accused of being socialist.
