It’s interesting that the private supermarkets (TJs, HEB) seem to both follow this happy and overstaffed model, and the public ones (Kroger, Albertsons/Safeway) do the opposite. Al…

The plans have weekly limits, but are charged monthly. So this is actually only about ~$45.

Also is having twice as much money (1x from interest and 1x from income) not a benefit? Maybe you are the strawman consumer that skeptics point to in guaranteed basic income debate…
