Nothing has actually changed - the crises have just sort of gone into a holding pattern while the vrius was defeated.
Anyway, the rainy-day is gone and we'll be billions in the hole at the end of this. The EU - rather than being very austere is trying the 'stimulate and print' approach to things. Aside from the Swedes. The fucking turnips. They're insisting the money be borrowed rather than granted.
This does just sort of mean we defeated the Corona virus like a computer virus. We turned the state off and on again.

Just having a solid reserve to run on in the bad times is being rather conclusively proven necessary by the past few months' situation, I'd have to say. That billion euros does probably look a little better when compared per capita, though - Los Angeles alone has about 80% as many residents as Ireland according to google.
