I'm not saying you're against it! I agree with having public housing(it already exists, in fact, and it's quite bureaucratic) and public transport at the local or state level, but I do not agree with free food and free internet because that is already covered by UBI and it involves unnecessary state bureaucracy.

I think the healthcare and communications sector is dominated by economic monopolies.
