Lets just say none of us is 100% right about this. Because we haven't passed that final bridge. But I suggest that others, rich or not rich, might have a common view based on how they see this evolving the best way. It may be simply about individual belief and values.
And I would suggest the economy will suffer more if this is not carefully thought out, and with the proper testing and monitoring in place to assure a better likelihood of success. And I also think that few of us are advocating "shut down". People are working from home. People are working on job sites (hospitals, food stores, manufacturing plants, etc.). Go back to work, but know the consequences. Have the data you need. Design sites accordingly. Change practices as required. And be careful not to make things worse.
I think if you peel back the onion many of us are saying the same thing...move forward with caution, and the capability of assessing the impacts, and reacting swiftly.
As far as the wealthy, they do not all like losing money. They are often ahead of the curve when it comes to making money. It spoke volumes to me that as soon as 1 pro athlete in NA tested positive, the entire sports world went upside down. Wealthy owners do not like losing that sort of business. I think they weighed the consequences quickly, and looked for a new route to follow. They will likely be the innovators and profit minded folks who will do whatever possible to get the economy going again. They can drive change, when given the opportunity.
And yes, thankfully many of them donate tons of money.
That's just an opinion.
