I was an information science major and let me tell you. Coding isn’t for everybody. While you’re guaranteed a job it’s actually pretty hard.

I can’t imagine a truck driver that’s been driving for 20+ to be retrained in a complex field.

With 1k in his community demand for other jobs with be greater. He can easily find work elsewhere

2020-03-17 16:57:35 UTC  

so whats the difference with lowering peoples taxes by a flat $1000 rate and giving them a check.

2020-03-17 16:57:38 UTC  

If you had an extra 1k a month I guarantee you that you would go out more in your community . Maybe go to a bar or restaurant. This would force bars and restaurants to expand and higher more people to keep up with demand

2020-03-17 16:57:54 UTC  

You can’t lower taxes if there is no jobs that’s the issue.

2020-03-17 16:58:17 UTC  

You can’t provide money if there’s nobody working either

2020-03-17 16:58:22 UTC  

Yes lowering taxes is good but it’s not good if you’re jobless. Depending on your industry and level of education you might not have a job 5-10 years from now

2020-03-17 16:58:51 UTC  

If you provide 1000$ to everyone why not everyone quit their jobs and there would be income equality ?

2020-03-17 16:58:59 UTC  

Is there a FUCKING yangganger in here?!???

2020-03-17 16:59:00 UTC  

a jobless person isnt going to stimulate the economy.

2020-03-17 16:59:20 UTC  

The objective is to do a “UBI” before people lose jobs. Do a Value Added Tax in Giant tech companies. Remove UBI for basic consumer goods like Groceries, kid stuff, etc

2020-03-17 16:59:33 UTC  

Of you provide tax breaks then you reward the working class not the scum

2020-03-17 16:59:53 UTC  

You’re not understanding the middle class is going to diminish with innovation unless they’re college educated

2020-03-17 17:00:07 UTC  

sounds like luddite fallacy speak

2020-03-17 17:00:10 UTC  

That’s what we’re trying to avoid. We’re also trying to get rid of social welfare programs that people abuse

2020-03-17 17:00:35 UTC  

It’s fine if you don’t believe companies are going to try to automate their workers

2020-03-17 17:00:51 UTC  

We’re seeing it right now. Wether you believe it or not, it won’t stop what’s coming

2020-03-17 17:00:58 UTC  

Not our job to help those who don’t want to help themselves

2020-03-17 17:01:03 UTC  

i believe they will but you cant do it quickly without letting the greater economy adapt.

2020-03-17 17:01:12 UTC  

That's one way to get reelected, just give everyone cash

2020-03-17 17:01:16 UTC  

"avoid social welfare programs that people abuse" like giving people 1k a month for doing absolutely nothing?

2020-03-17 17:01:48 UTC  

What happens when you run out of money

2020-03-17 17:01:54 UTC  

Giving people cash is useless cos food prices/rent/taxes will go up

2020-03-17 17:02:01 UTC  

You won’t run out of money

2020-03-17 17:02:04 UTC  

Or things get more expensive ?

2020-03-17 17:02:05 UTC  

poor people dont give a fuck about stimulating the economy. if youre jobless, getting 1k a month isnt going to help you start a business anymore than relying on government cheese helps you start a business.

2020-03-17 17:02:27 UTC  

Poor people spend money on local businesses

2020-03-17 17:02:37 UTC  

Hahaha inflation devalue of money

2020-03-17 17:02:38 UTC  

You're assuming humans are responsible.

2020-03-17 17:02:45 UTC  

That stimulates the economy... I don’t understand? Be the one that starts a business in your community

2020-03-17 17:02:58 UTC  

Venezuela outcome

2020-03-17 17:03:05 UTC  

No....

2020-03-17 17:03:40 UTC  

If y’all want I can send you studies from economist on the issue. Maybe reading it will clear things up?

2020-03-17 17:03:55 UTC  

A very small percentage of working class would be ok with UBI period

2020-03-17 17:03:57 UTC  

Maybe I’m not explaining things properly.

2020-03-17 17:04:17 UTC  

No, you're just dumb.

2020-03-17 17:04:18 UTC  

Don’t want to read something that is a bad idea

2020-03-17 17:04:25 UTC  

i'm down to read it lol

2020-03-17 17:04:30 UTC  

76 percent of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. 51 percent of that says they can’t afford an unexpected $500 bill

2020-03-17 17:04:46 UTC  

Many of these people are middle class Americans.

2020-03-17 17:05:19 UTC  

Sucks for them. People lose in Capitalism. It's the price we pay for... Not being in gulags

2020-03-17 17:05:35 UTC  

i could see liquidation of welfare being more of a conservative idea that reduces overhead and government spending.
