UBI Cash Payments Reduced Homelessness, Increased Employment in Denver
UBI Cash Payments Reduced Homelessness, Increased Employment in Denver
UBI, or universal basic income, is a form of direct cash assistance to help the most vulnerable get back on their feet. A new study in Denver suggests it works.
You're viewing part of a thread.
At the beginning of the Industrial Revolution there were an estimated 200 million people and virtually 100% poverty.
Now there are over 8.5 billion people and yet we've managed to reduce both poverty and hunger to the lowest levels in history. Along with the lowest rates of people dying due to war.
socialism didn't do that.
Completely irrelevant to what I wrote. My comment has nothing to do with socialism.
Not to mention fallaciously attributing technological innovations to capitalism as if they could not occur under other economic systems.
So in your fantasy world we would be at 8.5 billion people along with low poverty, hunger, and deaths from war... but replacing capitalism with socialism.
Likely you fantasize no income and instead it would be the whole "From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs" thing, right?
Unfortunately for your fantasy... the result of socialism has always been the deaths of millions of people through starvation and murder (followed by collapse and/or acceptance of capitalism)
Are you a bot, or just responding to the wrong person? Because that's the second comment in a row that has nothing to do with what I wrote.
What I wrote is completely germane, you just can't admit it or argue against what I'm saying because then it would be harder for you to gaslight people into voting for socialism.
You are the only one ranting about socialism here.
I'm not ranting about anything, I'm just responding to your posts. It's not my fault you choose to speak in euphemisms rather than directly say what you mean.
Anyway, this is not about me. So unless you want to try and defend your indefensible positions... have a nice day.
'm not ranting about anything, I'm just responding to your posts. It's not my fault you choose to speak in euphemisms rather than directly say what you mean.
So you have imagined my entire worldview and all the positions you are arguing against.
No, dickhead. When I argue for socialism, I actually argue for socialism with my full chest, not with euphemisms.
Anyway, this is not about me. So unless you want to try and defend your indefensible positions... have a nice day.
So you slither into my mentions, hallucinate things I didn't say, and expect me to "defend" arguments that only exist in your head. Sod all the way off.
Dropping the biggest turd of an argument and expecting me to pick it up. Pick it up yourself, and eat it.

And there it is, the extremist trademark. Attack and demonize anyone not in your "tribe". They're just an "other" right?
Thanks for confirming everything I thought about you.

I haven't demonised you. I called you a dickhead. And I called you a dickhead because of your actions, not your beliefs.
Thanks for confirming everything I thought about you.
Think whatever you want about me. It was clear from your first message that you were going to do that anyway, considering you imagined my entire worldview.
I'm nOT RANtinG. GeRManE. HAve a Nice Day.
Are you confusing socialism with communism again? And are you confusing authoritarian dictatorships with communism?
I have never confused socialism with communism.
Although Marx did call socialism "lesser communism".
😆🤦
It sure helped, though.
Probably one of the biggest benefactors.
Socialism has resulted in the deaths of millions of people through starvation and murder.
There are no redeeming qualities of socialism.
No, that's a complete lie. It has never resulted in the death of anyone, but rather has saved millions of lives and improved their - and our - standards of living.
But then, you don't actually know what socialism is, so you just make up lies for the evil boogyman hiding in your closet.
