What do you mean by "do"? Are you looking for advice on how to interact with them? Or what society should do to help them?

Good to know I can safely let my anxiety grow. Thanks OP!

I'm amused by this 301.

Naw, that definitely defies the laws of physics.

Someone cheated on their YC interview with the help of your open source project whose purpose is to help people cheat on interviews? Sounds like it's working as intended.

Reread your post and I'm still not getting it. What was the point?

Donations from one person aren't going to do much good. At best, it'll provide a bit of short term relief. The system that enables billionaires to exist is still in place, which means they'll just suck up anything that this one person donates, leaving us with one less caring person capable of enacting further change and amoral corporations becoming more powerful.

We need to change the system so that everyone contributes. It makes little sense for any single person to contribute when no one else does because you gain much less than what you put in, but if everyone contributes, then you get the opposite scenario where everyone gains more than what they put in. That's why taxes exist in the first place.

We have healthcare figured out for the most part. The issue here is housing.

Wine is also so easy and cheap to make at home. The only reason to buy commercial wines is if you're picky about the specific flavours. How many people do you know that are that picky? Pretty much everyone I know enjoys some wine on occasion and not a single one of them care about what kind of wine is served.

I'd add that they also have your roommate at knife point. I don't think it changes the answer too much, but it's closer to the scenario that OP is probably thinking about.

I just want predictable prices when I go out to eat. I don't want to find out after getting the bill that your idea of a reasonable tip for good service is 25%.
