[ExI] cumulative cost of shutdown

[spike at rainier66.com]

Something Rafal posted has been rattling around in my head: the cost of the shutdown continues to accumulate as long as it is in effect.

 

We have some notion that we can stay shut down until it is safe to re-open, but we really can’t.  That isn’t right.  Had we known we would still be in this situation a year ago, most governors would not have opted to shut down at all.  At some point, the cost exceeds the value.  We are way past the breakeven point and are deep into net loss.
