4. Repeal McCarran Ferguson to allow insurers to pool nationally (lowering ins. costs in numerous areas)
5. Cut off fed subsidies of all kinds to states that use license acquisition as a cash machine (licensing endeavors that needn’t be licensed to placate local protectionist interests and mine fee income for the state);
6. Shut down every agency rendered redundant by UBI (give people more cash and put useless middlemen on UBI themselves rather than stealth white collar welfare);
7. INFRASTRUCTURE BILL
8. Bankruptcy relaxation (allow modification of primary mortgages and allow discharge of up to 50% of student loans)
I can be exceedingly generous. Bernie-like. But where you and I differ is you want things managed. You believe in allegedly smart managers. I believe in smart policies. I think smart wonky managers of the ilk you desire are usually the road to hell in the policy arena because most govt folk have never managed shit, never made a payroll. They’re not serious people. They just sound like it.
