Theories On What Will Happen If We Are Told To Stay Home?
People do not have a lot of money in their bank accounts. If this virus hits us hard, schools and businesses could close down. People would stay at home. A lot of people will not be able to afford rent, or mortgage. The banks cannot afford to take back everything. In theory, what will happen with power, rent/mortgages, water, etc. if folks cannot pay their bills? If everyone is basically in the same boat, will they just let bills float until everyone gets back to work? I do not want three quarters of this country to end up homeless. I am worried about myself, as well as others. Anyone have any ideas what could happen?
