A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun

2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason

NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

Eradicate poverty and cars. Hey guess what drivers, you hate driving, that's why you rush until it's over. So I'll make public transit so fast and reliable that driving will finally be treated as primitive as it actually is.
Free apartments for all. Luxury apartments cost money. Unwanted, dangerous, and unpleasant jobs are automated with AI.
All debt is forgiven and you have a clean slate. Everyone now has a credit score of 700. Kickstart your best life.
Happy population means more locally owned businesses, less crime, less mental illness, less of a declining birth rate.
I love driving. That’s why I have two cars. A nice, comfortable, efficient, daily driver that makes my commute nice. And a fun car, for when I want fun.
Ah yes, the classic "driving is fun, it's just The People that make it stressful". How many people did you swear at on the road this month? And how many pedestrians did you beep at or inch towards while they were crossing the street?
Where did I say anything about other people in my comment?
All debt? Does that include companies too?
They’ve borrowed at least billions to grow their businesses, and that sort of money won’t just disappear without a trace. In this case, the trace would probably include economic instability of some sort. There’s a reason why central banks use interest rate to influence borrowing and inflation.
