The idea was proposed by two Democrats, so you know it has zero chance in this administration. We couldn’t even get our student loans forgiven.

Sounds like an argument against spillage that’s simply just pointing to an old rag and saying “duh”. 🤷🏽♂️
Also, not dissimilar to “doing just barely enough to shake things up, but expecting everyone to pull their weight to keep it going”, which is beyond ludicrous at this point and edging toward negligence, IMHO. gestures at recent socioeconomic events
I don’t understand what you’re saying here. Do you think it’s “useless” because it’s not enough?
That would be a logical fallacy.
Then I’m totally lost, what did you mean?
Initially, I meant that adding steps with intention to lean the total solution toward reparation for the exploited masses while also allowing for said benefits to landlords, et al, to be taxed at a later point as a balancing component… is naive at best. Dig?
That does explain the theoretical concern, thank you.
However, your landlord getting $1 more doesn’t make the $2 you get “useless”. Higher taxes or rent caps later will help even more, but aren’t a requirement for the policy to be a net gain right now.
UBI has already been tested in practice. Is there evidence that a majority of it goes towards rents?
