Notes on lockdown: people where I am are leaving the house at will, despite a 5:30 pm curfew and permits being necessary to leave the house. Police have stopped issuing fines and making arrests. Far fewer people are wearing masks and gloves.
The lockdown is over. Give it up.

Far as I can tell, the only people backing a lockdown at this point are a) partisan Democrats who want to demolish the economy and blame Trump for it and b) mentally ill Extremely Online Right-Wingers who think demolishing the economy will somehow lead to UBI (it won't).
BTW, to everyone who wants a UBI: you need a political base in order to get it.
There is no political base for UBI right now. Republicans and their voters don't support it because they want to get back to work. Democrats don't support it because they're owned by corporations.

"But muh Yang Gang!"
Yang got ten votes and dropped out after New Hampshire. If UBI had legs he would have at least done Ron Paul numbers. UBI is a fixation of Extremely Online people that has no real-world support. End the lockdowns. That's the only way you're getting paid.
