driving is a low skill job for jeets willing to work for peanuts while accepting all of the financial risk

I'm selling my stuff and becoming a digital nomad. I achieved the American dream by 25 and it sucks. My house is just a burden, I don't enjoy my neighborhood, and there's nothing to do without driving half an hour through shitty traffic. Is there anywhere in America where I can live without a car and not get fucked by the next lockdown event? Any other countries worth considering, ideally with either low income tax or low cost of living

Can the US populace sustain paying $100 for an oil change, financially speaking?

UBI is literally just a subsidy for low wage labour.
What makes it different from unemployment bennies is that you also get it whilst working.
Unemployment bennies compete with shitty jobs and help push wages/productivity up.
UBI subsidises shitty jobs and pushes wages down.

The end state of UBI is it getting inflated away until it's not enough to live on (because otherwise people wouldn't work) and people needing UBI + a low wage job to survive.
It's like those Walmart employees that need food stamps and housing benefits to survive, in the big picture the only winner is Walmart.

with a car, you can go anywhere you want

He's going to accidentally say "based" at the wrong time and the jig is up.

Should I invest in walkable cities?
