I think it will be possible for UBI to be implemented without causing government spending to sky-rocket
Let's do it
Let's tax the rich to death. They led the takedown of our country, let's get some payback.
I'm saying without insane taxes
Why not insane taxes?
UBI would elimination the need for welfare
And UBI would eliminate the need for a minimum wage
This will give businesses more money
Which will give the government more money
Yes but would UBI ruin the rich?
How?
I don't see how it would ruin the rich
Then what's the point?
This country is trashed, FUBAR. We are due vengeance, starting with the people who led us into this shithole
How is our country trashed?
How are we in a shit hole?
Have you ever been to a 3rd world country?
This debt is not going away, for starters
Yes
Not with trump
It doesn't matter who has what power: the trajectory is downward.
I can't tell if he's memeing
Do you trust the rich?
sure why not
trust them for what
imagine trusting the rich
elon musk is pretty hot
elon musk is pretty overrated
well he is a rather special case
but a banker
or a CEO of an oil company
Would you trust them to put the nation and wellbeing of the people first?
no
but I would not trust the average person either
this doesn't have anything to do with them being rich, people just usually put themselves first
well whether you trust your neighbor or not is not nearly as crucial as a super wealthy person
if they make a poor or selfish decision it probably wont have a national effect
i feel like people care too much about the national level
and not enough about their local politics which is usually much more impactful than anything congress or the president has done
yay $8 more on my return
