Nevermind the fact that big businesses are about to go bankrupt too. The airline industry is in trouble. Deep trouble. The tourism industry alone is huge and completely decimated right now. Disney World is shut down. Universal. Beaches shut down. Entire regional economies are built on tourism, like Florida's. You're putting hundreds of thousands of employees out of work. And even the big businesses have capital expenses and they're not sitting on 6 months worth of savings. They're going to have to make massive and permanent layoffs that will take years to crawl back from.
