    I’d vote for a ubi in a heartbeat, and lower home prices. I dont think i’ll ever have a mortgage and i don’t get how people do it without job security. I’d be even more terrified. Good luck friend.

      With you there.

      and lower home prices.

      The issue is just not that simple to fix.

        There are a lot of things which can be done to start fixing it, but we won’t even do those. Get rid of the capital gains discount and make investment losses only able to be counted against profit from that investment (not other income).

        Then you can start looking at supply and liquidity issues.
