It is designed to keep them poor.
Exactly.
Tain’t nuff.
Visions of Detroit mayor in RoboCop
There are apparently people, with money, even stupider than the mayor.
That 6 grand will quickly go up in smoke...or up the recipient’s nose.
So. When that money runs out and those people became dependent on it, then what?
There is no hope for these people. Once a mind adopts liberal thinking, there is no returning to sanity.
There is no way to reason with people who think that this is a solution to anything.
Socialism works until you run out of other people's money. People are not poor because they have not been given enough. They are poor because they have not given enough. Give and it shall be given unto you.
There is no form of stupidity that socialist cannot out-stupid.

>>Dorian Warren, who’s co-chairman the Economic Security Project, said the program will keep track of what recipients do with the money, and how having a “universal basic income” affects their self-esteem.<<

I don’t have an issue with private grant money being used in this fashion, because more than anything it will prove that Socialism is great, “until you run out of other people’s money”!
Bottom line, less than .05% of those receiving these funds will rise up from their current economic status. And less than .05% of that .05%, will provide any money back into the fund that helped catapult them out of their old economic station.
I just hope the news stories will be around to report the situation and chaos that will transpire when the city no longer has any money to provide these people! THAT will be the REAL news story! I will bet that a good portion of these people will DEMAND that they continue to get their stipend for “existing”; they care not, from where the money comes - they just want the money “owed” to them, for being poor!
6000 dollars of free money to by drugs, lotto booze and big screen tv’s
Keep track? Oh, this should be fun to watch.
guess what color folks
Keep in mind they will likely be getting this money in addition to their food stamps, 2-3 free meals a day for at least the kids in school, WIC benefits, Medicaid, free 0bama phones, possibly unemployment benefits and/or disability benefits.
Many of them will live much better than lots of hard-working, taxpayers.
No questions asked? Where do I sign up?
“The California city, which went bankrupt in 2012, has recently made strides to become more economically viable, but is still struggling.”
Stockton went through bankruptcy without addressing PE pensions, even though the Bankruptcy Court told them they could give PE pension benes a haircut. So they will be back in bankruptcy again sooner rather than later. Sooner still if they try this stunt.
