Are you listening to The Adventure Zone, per chance?

It's from Tennessee, thank you very much. Bourbon isn't a regionally classified spirit, but Tennessee Whisky is!

I'm taking this fine. And I told you, don't call me Serious Lee.

Southerner here. It's this kind of carte blanche thinking that had left the liberals and progressives of the South fighting an uphill battle. When the major party most aligned with our values throws up their hands and withdraws all support, we are left only with our metropolitan counties trying to lead by example, however flawed we may be. I want to help my rural statesmen get the help they need so that they're above water long enough to realize the true opponent, the 1% aka the new age plantation owners. But when we only have 2-3 counties per state trying to stem the tide while weathering the onerous rulings of a gerrymandered state legislator, it's slow going. I almost left once, but that's accepting defeat. I'm not leaving this country if we take a significant rightward turn, because I'll lose any ability to right the ship. Same goes for the South.

From a Blueberry in a Raspberry pie, with love.

Interesting! Do you see more builds being built at the higher cap, thus attributing to the housing crisis? Thank you for taking my question seriously.

@Ookami38@sh.itjust.works's idea of having a portion be mandated for Minimum Wage rent has some teeth.

What about differently sized apartments with different amenities? Sounds like this would force standardization and a race to the bottom on minimal amenities.

That's, uh, not a flat tax, then. You figured out the better approach immediately. And I agree, simplify the tax code while keeping it progressive.
