Dude! It's like we're operating on the same wavelength. It's very telling with what we consider "innovation." TVs, iPhones, gaming consoles, apps--basically stuff to watch things on and entertain ourselves. These items have all gotten cheaper while housing, college, healthcare, food--all things that are conceivably important to human flourishing--have gotten more expensive.

I wrote about it here in an essay series I did about work if you're interested.

Why can't we just pay people not to have to work at unethical companies? Why do we need to tax them when we have the proven unlimited public capital commons, overseen by the Fed, to fund basic income?
