I support very cheap housing, but not downright free housing

they'd need to get rid of privately owned universities if they wanted to make it all free, because what's to stop them from charging even more because the government will pay for it

there is a thing called council houses in the UK and you are given one if you are homeless or really struggling or whatever

you think this is good or no?

Subsidized housing attracts the worst

most towns have a council estate they're kinda scummy

some aren't

Charities should have free housing and shit

yeah

me and trump probably have similar ideas tbh.. id say uk and ca are similar

that's fair

i think theres a middle ground between having compassion for people that are struggling and providing motivation and incentive for people to work hard

yea

I tend to agree with LuckyPuffy a lot

my opinion is canada nailed it and im happy with what we have rn

Opportunity zones are a good idea.

i dont want taxes increased, more social programs that benifit such a small portion of people just keep it the way it is

I've thought about the idea of getting rid of all social programs and replacing it with a UBI

that may be better

what's a UBI

universal basic income

hmm

but you can't have both

Good idea.

and you can't have open borders and let anyone in

you can still have legal immigration ofcourse

we have both here in the UK

UBI?

I didn't know that

yeah

it's called benefits

it kind of works mostly doesn't

ah ok

i disagree with that, i think free monetary handouts are bad but helping people get back on their feet with programs that provide education and healthcare is better. also i strongly think immigration is the building block of our society and we shoudl accept as many legal immigrants and refugees as possible

legal is fine by me

well you have to balance immigration

what is your GPD growth compared to your population growth

you kind of have to manage it

@itsmike immigrants = cheap labor = more cash

legal immigration = good. refugee = good. illegal immigration = bad, however dont send them to prison just teach them how to legally immigrate

quality and pay goes up if jobs aren't undercut though
