"I was in a position where I could just put my thumb up my butt and play video games all day long. You know? I could do anything I wanted… I made my fortune. The only reason why I even do it now is because I like to do it. Pay, pleasure, prestige — that's the only reason to do a gig." He gets it.

We should have implemented a universal basic income in 1975 and indexed it to grow as productivity grew. That was the only realistic way of ensuring that productivity growth benefited all of us. To this day, UBI remains the most important thing to start to make sure we *ALL* benefit from GDP growth.

In case you missed it, there is now a bill in Congress for Universal Basic Income. The proposal is by Rashida Tlaib and called the BOOST Act as part of her Economic Dignity for All Agenda. The amount would be $250/mo.

One way to quantify the GOP's attack on free and fair elections: My law firm is litigating 78 voting and election cases in 39 states. This is, by far, the largest caseload we have carried in a non-election year and close to our peak in 2024. The question is how many more can a small firm handle.

It's really bad politics, and no way to run a society, to tell people over a certain income line that they pay too much in taxes to get any benefit from the government. This is one of the reasons universal basic income and healthcare are both so important and why they must be universal.

A state service branded to the leader is a hallmark of personalist governance. Benefits appear to flow from Trump, not the institution. Citizens are repositioned as clients. Well-being becomes linked to political allegiance. The Constitution recedes, and Trump becomes the perceived gatekeeper.
