collegebaseballrecruitingguide posted:Has anyone given any thought to the fact that in the past 2 weeks 10M people filed for unemployment benefits, the timeline for this virus to allow for gathering of crowds or teams is being expanded because we can’t seem to understand that we all need to shelter in place at the same time? The longer this whole thing drags out, the more parents are going to be impacted financially. Who is going to pay for college when investments are down a metric ton, unemployment at record levels, and the end is a long way out?
a lot of kids aren’t going to be able to afford to go to college, period.
Everyone sheltering in place at the same time is what drags this out; that's its purpose. The virus is not going away; that ship has sailed around the world. If you aren't infected while sheltering in place you will still be susceptible to being infected in the future. So when do you lift the shelter in place? When everyone is inoculated? What will the unemployment numbers look like then?
