What I’m proposing you wouldn’t lose the 300k because you still have your house and you’ll get the 300k back over time. And yes taxes don’t come out of thin air, but the whole system needs plenty of overhauling.

Everyone now owns wherever they are living. Current owner residents get reimbursed via taxes for their current equity over a period of time. People and government win, corporations take losses on investments and probably come out ahead anyway.
Obviously an oversimplified idea, but I think we should be asking “How can we make this happen?” more often than dismissing outright.

JennyLaFae@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is your go-to slow or pressure cooker meal that has under 5 ingredients?English2·13 days agoPot Roast
- beef/pork roast preferred
- potatoes
- carrots
- celery
- onion
- radish
- seasoning packet/stock & seasonings
I rarely have all of the ingredients, and proportions depend on what’s on hand.
I could probably just say assorted root vegetables as one ingredient honestly.

I think the ideal is a system that provides UBI, Nutritious food distribution, needs based housing, universal healthcare, and job services that provide aptitude testing, training and placement.
If 30% can meet our needs, the other 70% should be sufficient to provide the system and framework and enough left over for consumption, luxury and still have room for meritocracy advancement.
What’s the current wealth distribution? 10% holding 85% leaving the rest of us 15% only half of the 30 we need.

All in the name of maximizing sales and profit. Resources hoarded and wasted.
30% of the worlds resources would be sufficient to meet everyone’s needs if properly distributed.
But it’s not because corporations see a homeless man taking a sandwich out of the trash as a lost sale.
