Any company that intentionally underpays their employees so that they require govt assistance to live should be billed the full cost of all assistance that employee receives.

I think that minimum wage being a livable salary, is less complicated.

UBI could be even less complicated. If everyone were guaranteed a livable income, a minimum wage might not even be necessary.

I like Scott Galloway's take: SPEAK THEIR LANGUAGE!

Call UBI a negative tax and Republican voters will listen.

Just enough to pay rent and utilities. Then only corporations will own property.

*should be nationalized and sold off, and its mismanagers prosecuted

The wealthy NEED the airports to keep running so not to interfere with their vacation plan. Starving kids on the other hand can simply be rewoven as doormats by any good capitalist.
