AI Unverifiable Could not verify verbatim. Reliable secondary coverage of this Joe Rogan/Dan Savage clip quotes Savage differently: Salon says he argued we could bundle anti-poverty programs together and give people a "guaranteed minimum income," and the clip is cited elsewhere under the title "Joe Rogan and Dan Savage discuss a guaranteed minimum income." The exact wording you provided ("Guaranteed minimum wage … would relieve a whole lot of stress...") appeared only on YouCongress, where it is explicitly labeled "Unverified," and I could not confirm it in the source transcript.
