What to expect over the coming months:
More Crime derived from mass unemployment, fear and stress, mob mentality:
- fights between shoppers competing for food, petrol, necessities
- attacks on pharmacies
- car jackings
- home invasions
- gang attacks
- muggings
- road rage
- burglary, looting of all the empty shops, building sites and vacant venues
- Email and website scams
Police actually patrolling, instead of just traffic cop work! Complemented by Army patrols. Neighbourhood watch patrols. Private security.
The NBN and Internet crashing.
Blackmarkets filling in the gaps.
Power outages, caused by work from home load increases.
Profiteering from essential service providers and goods suppliers.
Bad people will take advantage of this crisis.
Good people will become bad.
Evil states and non-state actors will take advantage.
Conspiracies will spread.
Boredom will drive people nuts.
Unresolved disputes between people groups will inflame.
Blame games will develop pitting groups against each other.
Religious zealots will step in with the old "told you so".
Cults will flourish.
The Mad will become more mad. The sane will become mad.
On the positive side, we'll see an increase in:
Innovations in all areas of life, from remedies, treatments, communications, social interaction by distance, technology, all created by necessity and boredom.
Random acts of kindness.
