Companies are going to bet that they can survive longer with limited staff than their former employees can survive without a job. There will also be lawsuits, but those will take years.
I also wouldn't be surprised if part of tomorrow's announcement is some new FAA policies regarding vaccination of passengers and crew. Again lawsuits, but also again they will take years.
Oh, don't worry, you won't be afford to drive anywhere either.
Just today I read that there's a proposal in Germany to add an extra "green tax" (on top of existing carbon taxes) of 0.7 EUR per liter to gasoline and diesel. That's about an extra dollar, per liter, not gallon, in taxes. To put it in US terms, it's an extra $3.77 per gallon, just in this extra tax alone. The justification is that they're not meeting the decarbonization criteria they put on themselves a few years ago. Coming soon to a country near you.

Yet the US was even when we weren’t part of their treaty to tax us out of existence…
