Mutually owned rideshare app. The drivers and passengers get 1 share for every 100 miles driven or purchased. The premiums are collected from passengers for rides. The drivers are paid according to market wage. The expenses for the app development are paid and long term investments are made to keep the company's financial outlook stable. Then at the end of the year, any surplus is paid as a dividend. Any shortage is called for a contribution. Ultimately the numbers will favor riders once self driving cars are omnipresent.
States should create a lottery, where homeowners can pay $1 more on their state taxes to be put into a pool of money. The winner gets a home renovation that upgrades to code (including amnesty for any work done without a permit) and energy efficiency. New windows, energy efficient furnace, etc. The program would strengthen the state's housing stock, make living spaces safer, and reduce wasted energy.
