> software security education for all developers. 1 year of it. Mandatory. Financial penalties for developers and their employers.

Either you offer it completely free to anyone in the entire world, or this is just another barrier to prevent access to the developer "elite".

And btw, often it's not the developer that cuts on security features, but an executive that wants to get to market faster. How about we give compulsory security training to every manager/executive/ceo/etc AND we hold them legally responsible when damages are caused by their eagerness to cut on costs?

Life today is so much better than at any other time in history, because washing machines! And because I'm middle upper class, almost forgot that.

That kinda shows you what privilege is and how it conditions the political discussion. If you never had to face a problem (never needed someone to protect you against greedy employers), it is so hard to understand why that it's relevant.

It might very well be that they quit low pay jobs they took only because they had no alternative. It's obvious that the job market would need to adjust with an UBI in place. Most wage-slavery level jobs would have no justification to exist anymore.

Wouldn't reducing/eliminating taxes have the same exact effect as an UBI? More money in people's pockets. By following your logic no form of welfare can work.
