I think it's better to start by giving everyone the things we know we need (e.g., health care, a home) which adds up to a lot more already and then to start reorganizing society to make decision-making more democratic

Democracy doesn't mean to be tyranny of a majority. E.g., I think guaranteeing housing to everyone would make our society more democratic because it would mean more people would get to participate in it.

I don't agree with Bernie on everything, but I do think he has a much more compelling vision, and a more workable plan to improve our society than giving everyone $1000/mth. You can check out his policies here, there's a lot of good stuff https://berniesanders.com/issues/
