Instead of winning lotteries, let’s just give everyone UBI and take billionaires wealth. It will be good for society, good for kids, and we will destroy the powers that are destroying our planet.
UBI would be at best a layer of spackle on a government and economy which needs to be replaced entirely. At this rate though, even spackle would be nice...
Without rent controls and other anti-rent-seeking measures, UBI would be just about synonymous with a direct rent increase for most people by the same amount as the UBI.
And liquidation of every single social safety net still remaining.
Lets do that by getting rid of billionaires altogether.
