#Govts and #bigBusiness are using the #opportunity (#crisis) for various things, good and bad, including, no particular order:
- test #reduceTravel (especially #airTravel), not necessarily for the #powerElite who can use #privateJets and #helicopters.
- test #UBI,
- buy up #assets at #lowerPrices,
- boost #militaryBudget, increase #militarisation of #policeForce (especially in #Australia),
