Just like yesterday... Treasury guy didn't say "20% unemployment soon", he said that's the worst case scenario that they mapped out if there was no government intervention.

There's people in this thread freaking out for various reasons, and it's one thing to theorize shit getting bad, and something very different and worse to report news and give updates that either sound far worse due to lack of context or are incorrect.
got it.
