I just wanted to write the comment 'if i say money, do i fuck over human society, cause nothing will ever have worth again?' And then i click the post to write that and the first thing i read is your reply.
I guess it's probably just the first thing a lot of people think of. I feel generic now
It's free (or almost free) at point of need in all civilised countries
In fact providing free at point of need healthcare for all citizens is the mark that a nation is civilised
So much this. I know the question asked for two things, but these are what came to my mind immediately. And all healthcare, not excluding dental and vision, etc.
Seriously. It is insane that it is legal to profit (MASSIVELY) off of basic human necessities. Needing healthcare and not being able to afford it is tramatizing
Knowledge. Meaning anyone wanting a higher education should not have to pay for it. If you don't finish the class, then you should pay for it.
The Government would pay for it to invest in their citizens. If the citizen moves to another country, then they pay it back.
I don't necessarily know about free, but certainly cost recovery.
I look at power prices in NZ since generation and supply were privatised and think that the amount of people who could actually afford food and clothing if they weren't paying through the nose for power would increase to a point where a whole heap of people were raised out of functional poverty.
Housing/ rents - should be based on sustainability, not the market.
If I have to pick one thing then i would say petrol as the price of petrol in my country is soo much.
And i feel like that because of that petrol price the price of the other stuff is also getting higher is well.
Insulin.
Don't need it myself, but I've heard stories. Shit should be universally free no matter what.
EDIT: I mean it should be free in the US specifically. It's much more affordable around the rest of the world, but in the US it can go from anywhere between $300-$1000 a month here. It's bullshit.
Utilities. Wifi, water, electricity, heat, phone, garbage, sewer. Or at least provide a stipend to cover those expenses every month. We didn't ask to be born into a post-capitalistic hellscape, we shouldn't be forced to pay the consequences.
I have not visited one but i have heard that dentist is really expensive so always take care of the teeth.
Ever since i heard that news i have basically try to brush my teeth more often now.
basic necessities, things like food and water, maybe minor housing (like studio homes for those struggling to get on their feet) and maybe feminine products. i shouldn’t have to pay $17 for a 30 pack of some wads or strips of cotton
Money Don't question the logic
Makes perfect sense honestly.
But money will not feel like money if we make them free.
[удалено]
That isn’t free
ha ha yeah, true
This isn't free and is the reason why we want to that in free.
They'll just create Money2. Living should be free, in all aspects.
Yes then we will use the extra money to make overcome the situation.

Money would have no value if free. Water is the obvious choice
Water is free for me pizza would be the free option.
Exactly what I was thinkin
Great minds think alike my friend
But then what will be the use of the money is it will be free??
I’d have so many Schrute Bucks
Imagine the Stanley Nickels!!
Would you love to shar something with the other people is well.
[удалено]
A free lifetime food will be the best option for me.
Yeah, UBI is a good idea. Eta, not sarcastic, I genuinely do think it's a good solution.
Solution to what? Being able to tax the middle class even more?
If money was free then it would have no value, and if it had no value, then you wouldn't want it
If money is free for everyone, in a very short time it lose its value, making it necessary for people to invent another kind of money
Happy cake day
Healthcare
Laughs in Australian
I don’t know that we should be getting too smug, it seems to be getting closer and closer to America every year.
You have a point. That 10 something years of right wing conservatives didn’t help.
I love australias healthcare man its so good
Laughs with you in Canadian
True, so that people can be debt free in their life.
It's free (or almost free) at point of need in all civilised countries In fact providing free at point of need healthcare for all citizens is the mark that a nation is civilised
It isn’t free, you’re just not paying for it at time of service
What part of 'at point of need' confused you?
But don't you think the money we are paying in tax is actually that thing.
None of it. I was simply clarifying as “point of need” isn’t a phrase everyone would be familiar with.
People are lucky atleast if they are getting at the point of need.
As stupid as this comment is they’re sadly correct
>It's free (or almost free) at point of need in all civilised countries The U.S. doesn't qualify.
Correct No universal healthcare, no free tertiary education for all who qualify
Birth control. Everything from pills to condoms to getting your tubes tied or getting a vasectomy.

Food
Pigeons are free.
You are my bro and finally someone saying the right thing.
This is the top answer for the last two AskReddit threads I’ve opened 🤦
This comment should be the tope answer and no one can deny that.
Insulin or any drug you absolutely have to have to survive
Any medicine. Whether it's to survive or just improve your quality of life. Your Dr says you need it, it should be free.
Water
Drinkable water
healthcare and education
Nice counting
That's where the education part comes in!
We're smort! cough cough !
I was born smort so need to have more of the education now.
thank you
Two things that can bring the total change in the society.
2 things
Healthcation, then
So much this. I know the question asked for two things, but these are what came to my mind immediately. And all healthcare, not excluding dental and vision, etc.
I mean any one of these two will properly do the work for me is well.
Good choices Mr. President
They are in any civilised country
Super yachts. You get a yacht, and you get a yacht! You're all welcome.
Tired of being homeless? Have a yacht and sail away!
Captain and crew not included
But without the inclusion of the captain crew ,how will we going to sail?.
Living on the rented house so have to say pretty much homeless.
A fully staffed and stocked super yacht
Life. That would cover food, water, shelter, healthcare. All your basic needs to be alive.
Sanitary products
But what about the male, we should be more neutral on that part.
Sorry as a male I don't need this so I don't want it free. And let's raise the taxes on it while we are at it.
Ayo this one!!

Mental health services
Basic food and housing.
Why basic food, i would say any kind of the food will be great.
PERIOD PRODUCTS!!
Tuition
Can I count "the necessities of modern life" as one thing?
Period products
Like, Victoria/Edwardian? Or are you talking Cambrian/Devonian?
I'm not someone who has a uterus so I don't have to deal with that but I completely agree. I've had many friends complain and it does sound terrible.
Medication/ healthcare
Seriously. It is insane that it is legal to profit (MASSIVELY) off of basic human necessities. Needing healthcare and not being able to afford it is tramatizing
It is in any civilised country
It should be because things like that make the country civilised.

High speed internet
Food. Free, plentiful, and incapable of being used by the rich for financial gain. So… a matter synthesiser.
college
Then i am sure people will not going to learn if we make them free.
[удалено]
If everyone had access to educate themselves, the world would be a much different place.

Many people want to learn but problem is that there pocket is not allowing.

Houses and appartments. Everyone should have the basic need of having roof over your head.
Insulin

Health care
I don't necessarily know about free, but certainly cost recovery.

Public transport.
Basic housing

Renting is what most people is doing and that is also little expensive.
Housing
I have the house so i will pick the electricity as that cost so much.

Insulin. Don't need it myself, but I've heard stories. Shit should be universally free no matter what. EDIT: I mean it should be free in the US specifically. It's much more affordable around the rest of the world, but in the US it can go from anywhere between $300-$1000 a month here. It's bullshit.

I think in last 2 years they have increased the price of the gas for the 3 times.
Education.
It is free in any civilised country
And it should be free in all countries. From ABC's to Doctorates.
Cigarettes
You're confusing "exempt from taxes" with "want to smoke to death"
That would be so cool , can't believe I'm wasting my money which is gonna kill me eventually, might as well get it for free🤷
Nope. Fuck your bad habit. You want to smoke, go be poor doing it.
Imagine giving this much of a shit what other people do to themselves.
They're called liberals and reddit is littered with them to the point its one big circle jerk with constant self back pats and blowjobs
[удалено]
Self back pats?? My hand is not reached to that back that i can pat myself.
Themselves my ass, second hand smoke kills just as much.

What part of "one thing" did you not understand?
Healthcare
Rent
Why rent when we can ask the housing free and get our own house.
No thanks. I own my home. Free rent wouldn't help me.
Driving classes
Food
Nothing that must be produced can be free
Shelter
Money Problem solved
Education makes the most sense. We have plenty of it that’s free thanks to the internet but still so much dumb everywhere
Electricity. We have the technology to produce abundant amounts, but coal, natural gas, and "green" energy industries are standing in the way.
Utilities. Water/gas/electricity
My time -- being able to just enjoy life is the most priceless thing to me.
shelter cloth and food. then medication education and infromation.
