But if they're already getting that money and ubi is cheaper to service then isn't that a net positive?
I'm for universal health care but not for universal income because where is the money going to come from? Essentially you're taking more money from me to give it to someone else. So lets say you tax me $200 every pay check to provide universal income (800 a month) but you only give me back 400 a month how is that going to sit?I’ll actually defend UBI in this regard. It’s better than welfare because it doesn’t disincentivize work. You still get the money no matter how much you work or earn.
The issue is the next guy will get elected by promising more and more money.
With Trump gone the Reps will go right back to being spineless.Everyone thought the Republicans would never win a presidential election again when president Obama was elected. Then the Democrats were in shambles. Now we’re back to “the Republicans will never win again”
Anyone paying attention can see there’s a bard new Republican Party that will emerge from this. The Republicans are a few years ahead of the Democrats in that regard.
Now we get back to dem hate and division, did you forget the Obama years?I pray you are right. No more Trump hate rhetoric and division, and maintaining the Senate will not upset the conservative court. I would love some science in charge of the pandemic and not Trump and a guy who talks to RT, and doesn't realize it. Between all in our family, we know five people who have died, so it means something to me.
Right I understand that, I was just asking, if you make enough on Ubi not to work, why would you?I make 1400 a month from the VA right now because I’m a full time student. I still work and actually work what would be considered overtime for my job (I’m teaching during my planning period for extra cash).
But I think you’re misunderstanding my post. UBI 100% disincentives work to a lesser degree than welfare because you can work and still get UBI.
I’m not in any way supporting UBI. I’m stating that in that 1 area it is indisputably better than welfare
