Will 2020 go down as one of the worst years in modern history?

We should consider ourselves lucky if this is the worst we ever go through, considering what other generations did.

Polio looked so much more devastating...

Anyone who believes that is probably out pulling down American confederate statues.

For some, sure. Others, no. I don't think there will ever be a general consensus on it.

Nah. Compared to the sacrifices made by The Greatest Generation , this is a walk in the park.

1918 Spanish flu

The fallout for Corona virus could drag on for years. And that is assuming that it dissipates in the next 30 days. People were so convinced going into 2020 that bad times would never hit the human race like they did in the past and now fate has smacked us up side the head saying that is not so. Crude oil being down so hard is not good for a lot of businesses and their employees. All heck could break loose world wide if evidence is found of an intentional outbreak by China.
