Always happy to hear about another bookstore!





The Independent Bookstore, as Imagined by a Corporate Lobbyist
Bradley Tusk, a Bloomberg and Uber fixer who has opened a new bookstore in downtown Manhattan, thinks running that kind of business can be seen as philanthropy.

Mr. Tusk characterized the store as a “microcosm” of one of his favorite policy proposals: universal basic income, which he has advocated at length, especially through Mr. Yang’s mayoral campaign. P&T Knitwear offers higher wages than other bookstores do, he said, and provides workers with the same extensive health benefits given to employees at his venture fund.

Universal Basic Income?
Are all books for sale based on your income or still falling under the rules of capitalism?...................

You provided a link that I have to pay for. Can you pay for it and give me the info for free? I can’t afford it currently with the cost of living adjustments and want to read the full article about universal free income ironically.


How much do I get working vs not working with the universal basic income ?

Is there anything about migrants coming here to work willinglly? Do they get precedent ?

I try to post an alternative link when I can find one.

Failing that, I provide a bit of the text to show what the article is about.

And the NY Public Library has current NYT and online subscriptions.
