--- Quote from: Warmsignal on February 19, 2021, 02:49:43 pm ---I don't think COVID has really hurt everybody of a certain class. Nobody that I know personally has fallen on hard times because of the virus. Everyone admits to not needing the checks, and just using them as play money. Depends on what industry you are in I guess, and whether or not you have kids, because babysitting can be very costly when schools are shut down. --- End quote --- Someone who can afford 1000s of new video games I'd imagine No, their class is not hurt. |

I know lots of 40-50k (yeah that's middle class here) a year people who said they didn't really need the checks to get by. If they have kids, then yeah they had to miss work or hire a sitter. I think a lot of people across the US have a different grasp of economic depression. In my home state, economic depression has been a way of life since the 1950s. We are almost the top poorest state in the union. We had so little to loose, we didn't feel it. Walmart is our second largest employer behind the mines, and neither shut down so we're good out here... at least until the current administration's climate change policy takes us out back and puts us down. |

Considering how allot of sectors rely on tourism. I however think that if covid is over we'll be working a hell lot more at home than actually at the office since allot stuff seems to work fine withouth office space. could be a big hurdle for newcomers though. |

If you get an Action Replay disc, importing some of the better games can be much cheaper. For stuff like Smash Bros., Mario Kart, Wave Race etc. where language isn't too much of a barrier, lots of these games can be had for half or less of their American / European counterparts. |
