How much is one trillion divided by 300 million? I ran out of appendages trying to do the math.Just another dumb unaffordable idea
~3,333 per citizen.How much is one trillion divided by 300 million? I ran out of appendages trying to do the math.
Or "earned income credit"and how this is different from unemployment?
not my point at all. I want to know how giving people money who don't have jobs is different from giving people money who don't have jobs.Or "earned income credit"
Or "food stamps"
Or "subsidized housing"
Or "free school lunch"
Or .....
Well, I think everyone should just QUIT their job! Then, everyone could sit on their can like those already doing it. Seebell, are you already sitting on your can receiving redistributed funds? The only incentive people need is to want to sit on their cans and receive more redistributed wealth than other people. That's not fair!ya'll tell me when you get frustrated enough to vote me in as benevolent dictator, until then i'll keep dreaming of the day when we can actually solve the problem.
It would be interesting to note the militaries of the countries currently with some form of minimum income guarantee.We could end up with the weakest military in the world if they get to sit on their cans and receive the DOLE also!
Look a little closer and you'll see that Liberalism and Communism are one in the same. Semantics, maybe, but still the same. Then look at each and every piece of legislation, etc., proposed by a Liberal and you'll see that it is designed to push a Communist agenda.Wow! How much more blatant can they be in favor of communism?

Philosopher Matt Zwolinski has made a libertarian case for a basic income. "Conservatives care about limiting the power of government and increasing personal responsibility. ... Compared to our current welfare state, a basic income does both. Instead of a vast bureaucracy of over 120 different antipoverty programs at the federal level, you've got a program so simple it could be administered by a piece of software."

Despite what they might think, believing the government should have any role in taking from one to give to another isn't libertarian.Interestingly, some libertarians support the concept:
On the scale of ideologies, communism occupies the far left side, so it makes sense that some overlaps exists with liberal ideals. Much like fascism is generally placed on the far-right of the scale.Look a little closer and you'll see that Liberalism and Communism are one in the same.
