I had two businesses which were mandated shut until further notice, while bills and employee payroll which could not be entirely trimmed, went on and on. Those who weren't in such a position have no idea just how much "domestic terror" this was. I remember thinking that despite years of running a super tight ship, virtually no debt, and super prompt payment on bills, that I might not make it a month.

Government employees, retirees, and welfare people wouldn't have felt much of that. Most others bore nearly all the brunt; small business owners perhaps especially.

Re: “The turning point was of course March 16, 2020, the day of 15 Days to Flatten the Curve, though authoritarian trends predate that. Rights were suddenly broadly throttled...” I really missed out. I remember this "15 Days" campaign, but only as a curiosity. I was hardly affected by it. Throughout the pandemic, I only masked in stores and at the doctor's office, neither of which was even weekly. When I interacted with my construction people, nobody wore a mask.

It's hard to believe that it played such a big role in people's lives. My retired, rural lifestyle sure is great! More people should try it. They'd never want to go back.
