Yes, I'm a Conservative, But SOME Rent Control IS Necesary

Exactly HOW are you a victim of unequal protection under the law?

Employment is at the will of either party, not just the employer or the State, as the wealthiest market participants under our form of Capitalism.

Promoting and providing for the general welfare is what we are supposed to be doing with our form of Government.

They do provide for general welfare. Through welfare and disability programs.

Yes it is. Either the employee or the employer can decide to end the relationship at any time and for any (or no) reason. That is equal protection.

Solving simple poverty in a market friendly manner better automatically stabilizes our economy.

Thanks. That is the whole basis for my petition for redress of grievances.

You know what is really market friendly? Not raising taxes.

Let's see. Dimm raised inflation + Dimm raised taxes + Dimm fiat money pumping = a Dimm financial apocalypse.
If this trifecta occurs, no plunge protection team can help!

What grievance do you have?

Not if tax cut economics result in deteriorating infrastructure.

Raising taxes to pay for your "Unemployment for Anyone" plan will not pay for infrastructure.

Solving simple poverty means any typical consumer will be able to afford the service.

Absolute nonsense. What the UC will pay will be enough to survive, and maybe a little more. But nothing big.

And infrastructure is expensive. So more people will be paying higher taxes to pay for your plan. And paying even higher taxes to pay for infrastructure.

It has to solve simple poverty. Right-wingers merely indulge in soo much special pleading, it merely seems like an externality.

Welfare and disability provide the same safety net that your plan does. Except they provide it only for those who need it. Not for those who refuse to help themselves.

Why should society provide for someone who is unwilling to even try to provide for themselves?

Solving simple poverty is about making sure people have enough to survive. It does not mean providing a luxurious life.

No, they don't. Solving for capitalism's natural unemployment in a market friendly manner helps automatically stabilize our economy. It provides for the general welfare and that layer of social infrastructure resulting the requirement provide equal protection of the laws.

There is never a good excuse for govt control over any private property unless said property is impeding on others rights.
Raising prices doesnt do that.

Solving for simple poverty means they would be still be Poor until they took the effort to improve themselves and seek a niche in the market for labor, etc.

No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

The Citizens of each State shall be entitled to all Privileges and Immunities of Citizens in the several States.

Equal protection of the laws is a legal right guaranteed to individuals of the People in our State and Federal Constitutions.

State legislators have no authority to deny or disparage equal protection of the laws in federal venues.

The "natural unemployment" you speak of can just as easily be solved by existing welfare programs better than temporary unemployment compensation.
