We are eventually going to need to provide some sort of rent control, not by forcing people to rent at X price mind you, but by providing government housing (not slums/projects but real apartments) at affordable prices. This will bring down the prices everyone else can charge because nobody is going to pay a ton more if ttey have an option for say $800 a month. This is something that needs to be done now....before UBI is even considered, in my opinion. We need to normalize the cost of rent (and reduce it) first. That will enable us to determine a real cost of living and then if we create a UBI we can provide something that will let you live fairly comfortably, but not extragavently, so you have incentive to work, but if you don't want to, or can't, you can still live with a roof over your head, decent food, internet and entertainment. I think that is our future, but I think it may be painful getting there. Thats going to cost a lot, though. They would need buy other houses, tear them down, and rebuild. Mostly because I dont think we have enough room as it is. But it also knocks people out of their normal lifestyle. Like people who built themselves up. Either way, I hope Im gone before that stuff happens... I was talking to someone about this. They dont have a plan, but dont seem to care... --- Official King of Kings Switch FC: 7216-4417-4511 Add Me because I'll probably add you.
