    This is why I’m so pro basic income.

    Giving people their basic needs met (food, home, safety).

    Right now, the angriest folk are suffering and pointing the finger at the rest of the disenfranchised.

      I don’t know if having their needs met would make them immune to brainwashing from Fox, though. Many of the insurrectionists had jobs that paid them enough to be comfortable and they still attacked the capitol.
