id rather have free uni than free housing/food/util cuz then uni would be more competitive and actually be for the smartest

> was in a political debate with someone the other day.. they said if u dont support free university free housing free food and free utilities for all ur an awful person
@itsmike they want all this free stuff but they don't want higher taxes, they just want the rich to pay for it, and what do rich people do when they get taxed higher? they leave

free housing food util just promotes laziness and no motivation

but uni is super expensive because you're paying people on 70k a year to teach you

ya bro thats my point

Free/Subsidized housing will destroy your nice peaceful neighborhood

maybe?

eventually all these free programs they are askign for will lead to 80% tax brackets.. at that point whats the point of money

might as well go capital free comunism

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
