For one thing, sources or you're a liar. For another, I echo TexasUberAlles' question. Do you have a single argument to make that isn't based on whataboutism? No, I won't ignore your sources. I'll look them up and deduce myself if they're true, which is easy. If you don't give anything and say "Well you won't listen" then I'll just assume that you're lying and thus won't listen to a thing you say.
What you're talking about is a classic case of making an omelette without breaking any eggs. The people protesting demanding that states reopen and everyone going back to work right now are the same people who lost their fool minds and called Barack Obama a traitor and secretly a terrorist because he liked mustard on his burger. The only possible way we can safely end social distancing_*and_* do infection prevention here in the U.S. is for mass-testing that would dwarf what they did in South Korea. And maybe you haven't noticed, but thanks largely to the political party of science-denying morons whom we call the GOP the American healthcare system is hopelessly, _*hilariously_* , incapable of performing such a feat.
Just stopping social distancing and going back to business as usual would be nothing short of a catastrophe. Within months if not weeks, we'd be right back to square one only worse. As for the people running out of money, I feel for them. I was homeless at one point in my life and I wouldn't wish that on anyone. You want that to change, vote the GOP out and vote in people who will make sure the money goes to the people during a time like this instead of billionaires who already have more money than they could spend in a dozen lifetimes. See, the businesses you mentioned were still open because you can safely practice social distancing and staying away from each other. A hair salon? Show me a barber or a stylist that has six-foot arms and then we'll talk. A construction worker may have less contact with people than a grocery store clerk, but unlike a grocery store clerk construction workers travel all over the place. If a carpenter is infected they could spread it all over the state. I could go on, but I think you get the point.
Trump, the GOP, right-wing pundits and everyone else can fume all they want, but the United States as a whole is in no position to go back to business as usual. If the people screaming loudest the the economy to reopen get their way, they'll only ensure that it stays closed. All the while infecting and killing tens of thousands more Americans.
