Obviously they have great precedent in the 2020 lockdowns, but what will the exact restrictions be, and what will the progression look like?

?

I don’t think that’s what will happen though

The first real world event for me was the Superintendent on the jobsite literally told everyone "go home." We left that day and never came back till months later.

Then you had the weird restaurant shit (not fucking sure at all why "RESTAURANTS" are such a huge part of our life that this was a change in how we live but it was), the masks in the grocery stores, the lines near tents in the hospital parking lot to get your jibjab, and all the rest that we all know about.

What will the EVENTS look like for these lockdowns?

But I don't imagine they'll stop public transportation. So it'll really only be a lockdown for people who live in small towns without pubtrans. But also a lot of businesses will be closed.

This would be a problem for people who have huge commutes that can only be done by car.

Yep we're pretty fucked if it goes down anything like this. And I haven't even started to think about the impacts on the power grid – I know that's mostly natural gas, which we're OK on, but we don't know how all these things will interact in the context of a global energy crisis. Will they limit the hours we can use electricity?

(TBH I've been stocking up on supplies for a potential blackout for a while now anyways.)

Aside from stocking up on things: what are good investments to make if you want to trade this?

My main worry is about my family, not even my day-to-day life. I'm really close with them and they're all in DC or the U.S. embassy in London, so I worry every day about something happening to them. 💔

Can you help us out with the question of how to invest to capitalize on this?

But I am not sure because the market feels increasingly detached from reality and has for many years.

One of the issues with oil is that it can only stay so high for so long. People talking about "permanent $200 a barrel oil" are retarded IMO because prices that high destroy demand. We are already in demand destruction territory. More likely to see it spike for a short while and then come crashing back down to Earth because the prices themselves cause a recession. Same shit happened in 2005 - 2006. An energy spike in the mid-2000s was the actual trigger for the GFC. The kindling for all the mortgage securities to be lit on fire.

Agreed that it can't stay that high for an extended period of time... something would have to give... but that "something" could be, you know, middle class (and below) Americans' way of life...

I only didn't blank bump cuz I think the ((())) shit is gay. I literally hate Israel and Zios, like with a burning passion, and I'm an outspoken critic of them on platforms where I'm not anonymous. But I try not to degrade my message with the implication that it's a problem with Jews rather than a problem with a subset of them, the evil demonic pedo Jewish supremacist elites.
