GREG GUTFELD: Right now, the big question is we have to figure out when it is right to go back before you create permanent damage. And the fact is, we don't know. Nothing-- none of the information we are getting is correct. But we do know one thing. It is better to return too early than it is to return too late, right? Because if you return too late, it is too late. That means you can't turn the economy back on, it's screwed so you have to begin may be too early, you're never going to be perfect and then if you see there’s problems you make adjustments.
