A note for all #UniversalBasicIncome supporters. The Basic Income Action site is still in active development, and the link below is my current development server, not the final domain.

It was down for a bit, but it’s back up now.

In the background, I have been working with policy leaders in #Colorado on designing what a universal basic income program could look like statewide. So much possibility!

Coloradoans deserve a collective income floor to weather the storms that life, climate change & politics throw at any of us.

A #UBI could mean I could do what I wanted and need to do once my work is done instead of pretending to look busy for the rest of my paid hours.

Sitting still in an office for hours on end is unhealthy.

‘Universal basic income’

About those Tesla Q3 numbers... The recovery isn't what it's cracked up to be, and there's likely disaster coming in Q4. Hope #ElonMusk enjoys it while it lasts. And we hope to see you out there at a #teslatakedown action this weekend to keep the heat on!
