    For the record, I don’t think it is a bad idea—I want it to be a good idea and I would benefit from it.

    I just don’t trust corpo America to let us normies experience an increase in our quality of life without it putting a target on our backs.

    I’m glad to hear about the rent cap. Does that apply to new developments as well? Could somebody tear down an old apartment and build new ones at double the cost?

    I’m not trying to slam UBI or interrogate you, I’m genuinely curious. I just have a natural resistance to getting my hopes up after watching nearly every other proposed social program in my lifetime turn out to be varying shades of bullshit.

      Oh no. We’re going to have to fight. The idea that we won capitalism in the 80’s and 90’s seriously set us back. We’re going to have to fight and keep fighting our entire lives.
