Whats yang even about

2019-05-20 17:37:48 UTC  

lookign at it from the outside at a first glance he seems rather suspect

2019-05-20 17:38:38 UTC  

He has common sense

2019-05-20 17:38:43 UTC  

He's not mentally ill

2019-05-20 17:39:01 UTC  

Tulsi yang dream team

2019-05-20 17:39:20 UTC  

He has identified a lot of genuine problems but his "solutions" are iffy

2019-05-20 17:39:34 UTC  

*Free neetbucks for all the neets*

@woll3 He's a Third Positionist

2019-05-20 17:39:51 UTC  

thats where he is loosing me, i see a lot of promises

2019-05-20 17:40:03 UTC  

and some of the solutions are double edged swords

2019-05-20 17:40:11 UTC  

VAT for example

2019-05-20 17:40:30 UTC  

I’ll take any sane candidates I can get at this point

2019-05-20 17:40:34 UTC  

He wants to repeal and replace things like taxes and welfare

2019-05-20 17:41:03 UTC  

the question is if the system needs an evolution or a revolution

2019-05-20 17:41:11 UTC  

Revolution

2019-05-20 17:42:10 UTC  

i mean, i cant really comment too much since im not living in the us, but to me personally the best solution seems to be in the middle instead of going full european

2019-05-20 17:42:25 UTC  

The thing about Yang and Tulsi is that they will at least accept case studies and facts about their policy ideas

2019-05-20 17:42:45 UTC  

So they're open to becoming red pilled over time

2019-05-20 17:45:31 UTC  

@Fitzydog not really. Hell Yang bases his whole yangbucks off a faulty idea

2019-05-20 17:45:33 UTC  

I still think Tulsi is wrong about a lot of stuff, but she definitely comes across as someone who will change their stance based on new information

TULSI TRAIN

2019-05-20 17:46:27 UTC  

@Goblin_Slayer_Floki Yes, but he's surrounded by people who are pro-UBI

2019-05-20 17:46:28 UTC  

Depends on what it is.

2019-05-20 17:46:49 UTC  

Tulsi is so mired in intersectionality now

2019-05-20 17:46:54 UTC  

Watch his interview on Shapiro

2019-05-20 17:47:31 UTC  

@Fitzydog Nd that's fine. He has been spouting it's based on economists of the past, but they weren't about ubi, they were about negative income tax, which we essentially already have

2019-05-20 17:47:38 UTC  

I have

2019-05-20 17:47:44 UTC  

Oh okay

2019-05-20 17:48:31 UTC  

I'm of the opinion that UBI is one of the few options we have to slowly ween a large percentage of our population off of the welfare system

2019-05-20 17:48:42 UTC  

πŸ€”

2019-05-20 17:49:05 UTC  

It places the responsibility of budgeting onto the individual

2019-05-20 17:49:19 UTC  

It's just welfare by another name

2019-05-20 17:49:20 UTC  

Which is a huge first step that shouldn't be overlooked

2019-05-20 17:49:27 UTC  

Yeah no shit

2019-05-20 17:49:30 UTC  

And no matter how he says it wont, it will grow
