It would be logical to change the approach from complete dependence on someone else, to the country becoming self-sufficient in at least some basic things. The pandemic showed that in fact the whole world was dependent on China when it came to protective equipment, and the situation escalated to the point that shipments were literally hijacked at airports and diverted to other countries. If someone has learned something from all this, then some things will change - unless the policy that we should produce everything in China continues, because the cheapest labor force is there. So far, a good part of the world (especially developed countries) has acted like they live in a hotel with services that deliver everything they need, the question is whether they will change their attitude now - because there are situations where money can't buy something that is not on the market.


Such things primarily depend on the mentality of the people, some are skilled and like to do such jobs themselves which brings them pleasure and at the same time saves money. Those without skills will continue to seek services, especially when the situation calms down. DIY is actually a generally good approach, I hope people get a little more engaged about trying some things out on their own.

If nothing else everyone who has their own garden can try growing tomatoes, cucumbers, beets, peas or something similar. In addition to having healthy vegetables, working in the garden provides a great way to relax and relieve stress.

We may see more offices like these in the future - why go to the vegetable store when you can pick the same in your office
