Gates, and other elites of his ilk, is well prepared to weather the economic fallout from a nationwide shutdown. Killing the US economy could be a serious first step towards eventual depopulation. Furthermore, reducing the 'health' of the US economy would serve to lower a once great nation to the level of second and third world countries. Regulate. Debilitate. Negate. SARS CoV-2 (aka Novel Corono Virus-19; aka Novel COVID-19; aka COVID-19; aka Chinese Flu; aka Wu Flu; inter alia) in its current manifestation (whether naturally occurring or manufactured) apparently does NOT have a mortality rate that would lead to any significant depopulation. Therefore, NOT shutting down would NOT lead to sufficient deaths to accomplish the goals of the 'depopulaters'. Does that make sense?
