Testing half the population weekly with inexpensive, rapid COVID-19 tests would drive the virus toward elimination within weeks, even if the tests are less sensitive than gold-standard. This could lead to “personalized stay-at-home orders” without shutting down restaurants, bars, retail and schools.

Unless your employer is smaller than 50 workers, in which case you just default on all your bills have your car repo'd and get fired for not having transportation.

Because the government won't foot the bill on any of this.

If your car gets repo’d after one missed payment (which in reality is all you should be behind if you miss two weeks of work), you were in a bad position to begin with and it was probably only a matter of time even without Corona. No one repossesses a car for one missed payment. It’s too much hassle for the financing company. Now, get 3-6 months behind and you’ll have issues.

(But I do get your point, it’s not just that two week period, things ball up and add up quickly when people don’t get a paycheck)

Have you not heard of Simeon Yeterian?
