Awards
gollark: Thus UBI or something, yes.
gollark: As I said, I'd prefer being given choices about that than having someone say I can't have X food.
gollark: That seems somewhat arbitrary.
gollark: No, I mean by the government, which probably has to go to lots of effort to run such a system and define what "food" is.
gollark: So would just giving people money to spend on food. Less overhead with working out what counts as acceptable food too probably.
