No, not really. I'm trying to establish what an American standard of living is - or should be - in 2021, because it seems to me that the claims of both poverty and wealth are surprisingly relative, and therefore, we as a society are just throwing money and/or denying money predicated on archaic ideas. I am not a proponent of big government or high taxation. I think it is an anathema to our foundation. However, in order to address "poverty," for example, we have to address what it is, just as we have to address what wealth is. Right now - given the epidemic - checks were issued predicated on numbers that seemed to be pulled out of the sky. American poverty is - and should be - viewed very differently than what defines poverty in other countries. We are - or at least should be - held as the beacon of prosperity. So, what I'd like to do is define what a basic living standard means in the USA now, and then, perhaps, look at a UBI solution, but predicated on offering basic goods and services, not money, with those goods and services issued on what we construe to be true need in this day and age. Money is too easily and too unwisely spent, and that's true of all of us at times, which is why I don't advocated currency, unless paid into and thus returned, like social security. Thanks!!
