Your analogy and argument is very well organized so I wonder how you think universal basic income could mitigate the negative impacts of generational wealth/poverty? In my mind, it is part of a solution to many social issues but I'm still learning. I know there are arguments that capitalism will just buffer against any implementation but I'm still forming my opinions.

4 billion tons at 3 ppb... It's so much water, don't try to drink it either.
I'm excited for flying mount updrafts and adventures but a little worried that mounting in combat will be awkward for the game.
There must be some new reason they want us to be able to get on a flying mount in combat but it's odd that this doesn't extend to other mounts and I also wonder if it will remove flavor from other parts of the game by making the choice to get into combat a bit more trivial. I'm just not sure about that one until I get my hands on it.
Right now if you choose to solo a champ or low man a group event there can be a trade off by choosing to disengage. That's totally gone if you can decide to fly away whenever you want.
If it's at a medium to large company, IT policies control everything and you don't get much control over your work device. This is a good tip, if it's possible. My work prevents it so that they can push updates when they want to.
Recently, they took over browser settings so I couldn't save passwords but so far I just work around that by manually adjusting the saved pw on a personal device.
IT can bug me, but they also have my empathy for the average employee they're trying to protect the company from.
I'm trying to complete meta achievements for all EoD maps and story journal episodes. I also started doing fractals again after a long break. A little gold in the bank will buy me some of the new shineys. As part of restarting fractals I'm making it my goal to be decent at all roles again (1 alac, 1 quick, 1 cdps, and 1 pdps) because the only instances I've hung out in for the last year are strikes and I have been in healer-jail for CM runs.
Another part in my mind would be estate taxes. If generational wealth wasn't as impactful on our lives then UBI could serve a bigger purpose. If the playing field were more level for everyone, then hate or fear couldn't errode it as easily. It's not something we can see in a lifetime, but I hope that I can see us aiming at a useful target while I am still around.
