Last week, USA Today’s Glenn Harlan Reynolds made an important point about the coronavirus protests: Those demanding a return to normalcy have no other choice, while those hesitant to reopen the country do.

There are two Americas right now, Reynolds argued — the employed and the unemployed, the people who can afford to sit inside for several months without fear of economic loss and those who can’t because they’ve lost their livelihoods due to the economic shutdown. There is a lot of truth to this point, especially as unemployment claims continue to soar and economic productivity drops.
