* minimum wage is probably bad * corporate influence of the legal system is absolutely horrible * democracy is probably not ideal * requiring other people use your preferred pronouns is a violation of boundaries * trying to use people's preferred pronouns is good 2/

* we should be more sympathetic to cheaters * building permits/zoning are probably bad * taxes are BAD, but I probably support "revenue through collective good punishment" like heavy fines for environmental pollution * experiencing (not acting on) attraction to children is fine

* tax heavily sales of drugs that disproportionately lead towards social damage * i'm fine with funded incentives for voluntary self-sterilization of certain groups * economic inequality isn't inherently bad, you're just jealous * trad buddhists are lame and masochistic 5/

as in, it opens up a whole other can of worms if you say "someone with the means to help is obligated to help." We can generalize that a little too uncomfortably.
