  1. "There is no independent solution to "re-opening the economy" that is independent from a plan to deal with and contain the virus." That's very true. Chris Hayes is 100% right about that, and one of the ongoing tragedies (among so many much larger ones) is that Trump's inability to see both of these problems as a single issue means the US government can't deal with the situation at all. Agencies are pursuing their respective parts of the problem, but with no coordination at the top nothing they do will fix the entire issue. So the government keeps chasing its metaphorical tail, and all the important decisions have to be made on a state level. But states are too small to make collectively effective decisions on the virus, even when groups of them coordinate. If California, Oregon and Washington state open sooner than the East Coast states, it could cause another wave of infections.
