I'm for UBI I just have zero idea how you implement it without authoritarian rules over industry, as in deciding how much stuff is allowed to cost.

We saw with COVID, people were given a measly 1000$ and all prices skyrocketed in unison.... What a coincidence....

Our industries are too corrupt, and the minute you start giving out money to the poor, it will be essentially going to Bezos.

I'm also for student loan forgiveness, but again, we never addressed the cost of school so basically we burdened future generations with debt so bankers can get paid.

I don't know what the solution is.
