    I know this is just first small step but still excited to see it happening. Every wildfire needs a first spark, let’s just hope it spreads,

      Still kinda too soon, didn’t have a different analogy?

        Damn, sorry. It was the first thing that poped up in my head. We don’t really have wildfires here so didn’t really realize it might be sensitive phrase.

          I was being more sarcastic than anything. I was just laughing to myself that wildfires was the analogy you chose.

          I didn’t have any directly close to me, but boy did those smoky days mess up my allergies for months. Had one of the worst sinus infections since I had surgery years ago.

      Maybe they will be able to afford it with their economy. In other parts of the world where the situation isn’t that bright, similar measures are being canceled due to lack of financial sustainability. And this is not entirely bad for the economy either. Each country is choosing and only time will tell who is making a sensible choice.

        UBI should have the best impact invocations with instability caused by wealth inequality and lack of job security. It is likely that includes the places where they are canceling it due to lack of financial sustainability that would most likely be more sustainable with economic stability for all.
