lol, your first paragraph described exactly the discussion I had with a friend less than one month ago... and you wrote the exact question he made me.
“So you want people to sit at home all day and collect free money?”
On my mind, I had "Yes. I want this. For everyone. Not just money. I want to give everyone all the resources they need to fulfill their lives. I'm trying to discover how"
I wonder why ended up dodging the question; yes, +1 for star-manning. I like the concept.
Summary: Star-Manning is like steelmanning except that you act charitable towards the person as well as the idea.
