It would actually be worth living through another pandemic if it means Trump can't execute his plans.

I somewhat agree but another pandemic is also a great excuse for potential economic issues, a great topic to distract people from unpopular measures and - as with the 'china virus' - something to villainize migrants or political opposition.

Never let a crisis go to waste.

I wouldn’t waste any time locking in a <2.5% mortgage this time though.

I wouldn’t mind a return and hopefully stick of WFH after they kept trying to force people back.

I doubt it. If they do force you to work during a pandemic, make sure to cough need the big boss IF THEY EVEN SHOW UP!
