I'm not so sure because it seems like herd immunity was able to be acquired faster through a lack of protective measure.

At what cost?

This effectively lengthens the time period where the most deaths take place.

Yes, but likely lower the total number. It's not as if there would be no household spread of the disease without a lockdown.

Policies designed to save the economy from the damage of the bubble bursting actually lengthened and economic slowdown for 12 years unnecessarily, when if nothing had been done, the American economy could have recovered within 2.

I don't believe that. Perhaps without Smoot-Hawley. But you cannot rerun history, and while I'm sure there are economists who will make this claim, whether this is actually something that you can count on is quite another.

Like I said, I'd be willing to bet that COVID deaths in the US are probably 10x higher than if we had done nothing at all.

That sounds like crazy talk to me.

No, I actually disagree with that. The lockdown hasn't stopped infections because a) infections spread through houses, b) people who weren't infected are going to get infected when they get out of the lockdown because the disease is endemic and was always going to be endemic.

The reason people were dying wasn't because the disease was particularly lethal, it was because the healthcare system in some countries was over-burdened. This is why the Germans UND ZER RUTHLESS EFFICIENCY didn't experience a disaster the way Italy did.

But you cannot rerun history, and while I'm sure there are economists who will make this claim, whether this is actually something that you can count on is quite another.

The reason there are economists who can make that claim is because you can count on it.

Hell, look how fast some places recover because they refused to shoot themselves in the head economically.

That sounds like crazy talk to me.

South Dakota says "Hello".
