      You underestimate the need the liberals have to show they’re Doing Something^TM Since the only thing they really know how to do is sign checks, they’re going to do that.

      Personally, I’m not looking forward to the day I get a check I didn’t ask for and then a year and a half later they ask for it all back.

        You should read about it.

        I know you neeeeeeeeed to hate the non-conservative in power doing nothing for a 1% you may one day be, but get some details on it. So at least so you can rebut it point by point, and remember that you probably make way too much to get a cheque.

          It’s not “Universal” if people are disqualified for earning too much or whatever. (The logic being that the administrative and enforcement overhead isn’t worth means testing, just accept that you’re getting more taxes from the rich to make up for it)

          I’ve read plenty. I’m not talking about the good or bad of UBI, I’m talking about the certainty of the liberals fucking it up.
