What the fuck does this even mean?

The United States already provides medical care and a basic income to U.S. Veterans already

and we know how that is doing SO WELL

What makes Yang suddenly think he can expand this medical care and basic income to everybody else

Will he bring a group of the best bureaucrats who can handle it?

When you address this

```
Andrew would implement a Universal Basic Income, ‘the Freedom Dividend,’ of $1,000/month, $12,000 a year for every American adult over the age of 18. This is independent of one’s work status or any other factor. This would enable all Americans to pay their bills, educate themselves, start businesses, be more creative, stay healthy, relocate for work, spend time with their children, take care of loved ones, and have a real stake in the future.

Any change to the Freedom Dividend would require a constitutional amendment.

Any change would require a constitutional amendment?

So he's proposing an amendment to the Constitution to make this Freedom Dividend possible.

The arguments that Yang makes for UBI are completely retarded

*Who knew people would do less bad things if they were given free money*

Free money would promote irresponsibility no?

Legal irresponsibility

But it's obvious you wouldn't rob a gas station

if you were given free money a month

People wouldn't turn to drug dealing if they were given money that let them live

But I doubt UBI will even pass at a Constitutional level

It's basically entitlement welfare

He's not going to get it signed as a law, he wants the UBI ratified in the Constitution

Typing

@Techpriest impossible

I couldnt imagine any new ammendments passing even the ERA

@Techpriest what do you mean "what the fuck does this even mean"

If you actually looked at his website you'd see in depth explanations of all three of those policies

As well as his other 120 or so policies you've entirely failed to mention

Also @Hyprr what do you mean by entitlement welfare?

UBI would work as a replacement to current welfare programs

@The Lemon it would still be entitlement welfare though, it just replaces pre existing entitlement welfare.

Government says you are entitled to 1,000 dollars a month as a form of welfare

And that makes it bad because?

I don’t think I said it makes it bad

GG @Hyprr, you just advanced to level 1!

Ah k sounded to me like that was what u were implying sorry

I was just wondering why you would need a constitutional amendment to enact entitlement welfare

Instead of the normal channels

Yeah Idk about that either

Yang hasn't said anything about planning to have a constitutional amendment to get it through as far as I know

Probably not

It be better anyways to pass it as a bill since spending is so hard to cut anyways

nothing here https://www.yang2020.com/policies/the-freedom-dividend/
