He has identified a lot of genuine problems but his "solutions" are iffy
*Free neetbucks for all the neets*
^
thats where he is loosing me, i see a lot of promises
and some of the solutions are double edged swords
VAT for example
Iβll take any sane candidates I can get at this point
He wants to repeal and replace things like taxes and welfare
the question is if the system needs an evolution or a revolution
Revolution
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
The thing about Yang and Tulsi is that they will at least accept case studies and facts about their policy ideas
So they're open to becoming red pilled over time
@Fitzydog not really. Hell Yang bases his whole yangbucks off a faulty idea
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
@Goblin_Slayer_Floki Yes, but he's surrounded by people who are pro-UBI
Tulsi is so mired in intersectionality now
Watch his interview on Shapiro
@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
I have
Oh okay
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
π€
It places the responsibility of budgeting onto the individual
It's just welfare by another name
Which is a huge first step that shouldn't be overlooked
Yeah no shit
And no matter how he says it wont, it will grow

@Goblin_Slayer_Floki well your only other choice is to hope for total societal collapse.
So choose wisely
Only ubi is worse than current welfare. Least current SHOULD be limited to those who need it
Sorry I dont see giving everyone 1k bucks as society saving. I see it as an inflationary tool
Because within a year or 2 it will be like that 1k doesnt exist as inflation quickly moves to match
automation can make UBI possible, but not now
But Yang also shows signs hes against a free market.
Fact:
The welfare state WILL COLLAPSE.
It will not last forever, nor for very much longer.
This is a fact.
Do you want it to collapse while a whole bunch of people are dependent upon various programs? Or do you want it to collapse where it's just an extra income check?
