Crash the economy all you want but why lockdown?

I assume because in that initial couple weeks of COVID no one was traveling and it sharply dropped pollution.

Yea I don't really see a solution besides slow ass progress which is kind of untenable anyway, and, generally speaking, I've never known a group of people to work together unanimously for good...rare at best, and usually only after some collective trauma, which we have largely desensitized ourselves to.

I'm definitely not being locked down, that's for sure. But that's just me. I don't fly, hell I barely drive outside of work. I don't know.

To install some sense of principle/awareness into a vast swath of people would take insane restructuring in my country at least.
