covid-19 and the coming depression

It's something I didn't believe was going to happen to my generation, but it has. My grandparents were children during the depression, and both sets were used to the hardship of lean times.

I'm not.

This is strange and terrifyingly real.

And I am not sure that you and I are going to be the same when it's done.

I don't have the luxury of beliefs, or a deep sense of entitlement. This is going to be hard, and painful. And it's going to ask more if us in an individual level than I think I or most of us are really prepared for.
