Then it encourages risky behaviour

2018-07-23 20:49:04 UTC  

It also gives them a unfair advantage against smaller banks that wouldnt be bailed out

2018-07-23 20:50:27 UTC  

but wasn't it also a thing that the banks were forced to loan to people buying houses or something by the state?

2018-07-23 20:50:39 UTC  

i recall something like that having been done

2018-07-26 01:24:15 UTC  

We should exile those who burn the national flag to Liberia

2018-07-26 01:43:51 UTC  

Nah, Amendments before offense

2018-07-26 01:52:48 UTC  

Flag burning has come up as a 1st amendment issue several times.

As detestable as it is, the argument does tend to ultimately hold that when done as a protest it's a free speech issue.

2018-07-26 02:09:20 UTC  

I think people who argue for abolishing free speech should be sent to Liberia

2018-07-26 02:09:34 UTC  

Or anywhere without Free Speech, really

2018-07-26 02:51:24 UTC  

Cuba, Venezuela

2018-07-26 14:16:03 UTC

2018-07-26 14:16:21 UTC  

done by veterans agaisnt vietnam

2018-07-26 14:16:36 UTC  

where they were gonna put all of their medals in a bodybag and bring it to the door of the white house

2018-07-26 14:16:54 UTC  

tricky dicky errected a fence around teh whitehouse to stop tehm

2018-07-26 14:17:16 UTC  

then they decided they would jsut throw their medals over the door of teh fence

2018-07-26 14:17:56 UTC  

LOL nixon accidentally gave them arguably one of the best photo opportunities of the vietnam war protests

2018-07-26 14:18:20 UTC  

"disrespectful loyalty"

2018-07-26 14:54:16 UTC  

The fence never came down.

2018-07-26 16:38:07 UTC  

Question for yall

2018-07-26 16:38:40 UTC  

UBI, what do you think about it?

2018-07-26 16:40:44 UTC  

I'm in favor of it, I think it's going to be necessary to sustain capitalism at some point.

2018-07-26 16:46:01 UTC  

Highly against it, it will destroy society

2018-07-26 16:46:18 UTC  

only time UBI works, is when its no longer needed

2018-07-26 16:46:26 UTC  

No more than half of the job vanishing.

2018-07-26 16:46:37 UTC  

yes, but UBI will take with it the other half

2018-07-26 16:46:50 UTC  

No

2018-07-26 16:46:55 UTC  

Why bother working if you get sustainence for free?

2018-07-26 16:47:04 UTC  

what makes you think it wont Dennafen?

2018-07-26 16:47:18 UTC  

Because it's better to work than live off other people a leech.

2018-07-26 16:47:31 UTC  

And you think everyone thinks that way?

2018-07-26 16:47:36 UTC  

thats what UBI will be doing

2018-07-26 16:47:39 UTC  

You have a principle, that is good.

2018-07-26 16:47:50 UTC  

But it is incorrect t oassume you are the average

2018-07-26 16:47:54 UTC  

You can't just generate money
It needs resources tied to it

2018-07-26 16:48:10 UTC  

I agree, it would obviously be a tax.

2018-07-26 16:48:19 UTC  

which means that the rich

2018-07-26 16:49:07 UTC  

Yes the rich would be the ones taxed, but at some point soon we will have a vast number of people who though no fault of their own won't be able to have jobs at all.

2018-07-26 16:49:44 UTC  

yes, but that doesn't suddenly justify UBI, because UBI will be coming from those who achieve more than UBI as income

2018-07-26 16:50:09 UTC  

How does that not justify UBI.

2018-07-26 16:50:21 UTC  

What other means would they have to make money.
