The whole concept of “free money” is just so fascinating. It’s like these people understand absolutely nothing about economics.
Just give everybody ten million dollars. (We used to say a million, but I want to be sure everybody has more than enough money.)
Then nobody will have to work.
Everything will be free.
Why don’t the Old White Men and The People Who Listen To Them understand this simple fact?
How is this (bribery) not a violation for at least 10 FEC regs???
Duh, who wouda thunk it? I agree - free EVERYTHING! I want a free McClaren, and a beach side condo on Maui with garage. No, don’t need a house ... I’m not greedy ... just want my fair share of the Trillions of government money.
The most dangerous idea currently being pushed by the Left. Guaranteed to produce a vast, permanent, unemployed, parasitic underclass which is for sale to the highest bidder.
“Report: Andrew Yangs Free Money Proposal Proves to Be a Bust”
nonsense. he just didn’t offer ENOUGH free money! He should try $10,000/month .... i bet that would get him some positive attention!
I’m still waiting for my free obama phone so guess I won’t be getting that $1k, either.
I’m short of cash and I identify as an African American woman. Where’s my money?
We somewhat already do this. The standard deduction is $12,200, which is 12M a month. At the lowest tax rate, that means the gov’t is not taking ~$120 each month. There’s your UBI, you just have to earn it first!
