I really, really, really hope they try it out. Maybe then when the economy is destroyed with inflation, those plebs will shut up and stop asking for it.
Though there's always the fear that they make excuses to justify that it wasn't "done right". Who knows... where have I seen that before? 🤔
Imagine saying this when there was literally just a news story on Lemmy in the past day or two, about Oregon trialling a UBI dealio, with positive results. Oh and the like... piles of people who have disproven what you say a dozen times over.
Oh, yes. Go ahead and do it, you short-sighted child who believes every random link online that proves his ideology. Please go ahead, I'm begging you! Implement UBI and make my dream come true! I'm really tired of having these discussions with idiots who can't do basic math.
When you can't afford bread due to inflation, just remember that I'm on the other side of the world laughing my butt off.
Very creative name calling. I'm certain that gets you very far in life. Also, even if UBI was implemented, I live in one the single most expensive cities in the world so UBI still wouldn't fix our issues. And I didn't claim it would. I believe its a worthwhile shot, and there's some interesting progressions happening, if you would only spend 2 seconds of your time to look at them and decide for yourself if theyre viable or not.
Also, when you're "laughing your ass off" at people being unable to afford bread, why bother adding the conditional that UBI has to be in for that to be a thing? You can start laughing right this very second at all the people that can't afford bread, without UBI! It matches your vibe almost 1-to-1.
You DESERVE being laughed at for voting for politicians that are dumb enough to think this might work. Just like Califrona has become a shithole and they deserve all their problems, and same for Newyork. You deserve to suffer, live in dirty allies, step on shit, be stepped on by police, and be treated like cattle, and more. You deserve every bit of it.
I do hope UBI gets implemented. I promise, you'll become the laughing stock you deserve to be, even more. I learned not to care about your kind. I learned to only laugh. Enjoy your leftist dystopia, while I enjoy freedom and wealth from hard work.
So, you just plain stupid or only illiterate? I didn't say I voted for ANYONE, much less politicians specifically working with UBI. The only laughing stock around for miles so far is you, from what I can tell.
I'm sure I could go on and on and on and on and on and on about how I didn't say any of the shit you claim I did, but it's pretty evident you would be none the wiser even if. You make a pretty good case for free healthcare though, I don't need to be a US doctor to see how expensive your mental health coverage would be.
Of course you didn't vote for anyone... of course none of this is "your fault"... don't also forget to remind us of that when UBI is implemented and everything falls apart while the rich get even richer and the poor get poorer and inflation is sky-high. And never forget the classic "it wasn't done right" afterwards to justify more destruction, after whoever implements your shitty socialistic UBI destroys whatever city that becomes California/Newyork 2.0.
I do hope you get what you wish for, and never forget. Never. I'll be over here laughing at all your failures, you dumbass ignorant brainwashed plebs.
I'm committed to witnessing you be a trainwreck, keep going on about how I'm the one to blame in this fictional world you have manifested yourself into. Please. It's just oh so hilarious to watch you argue with yourself. Spiral further! Spiral more spirally! It'll be fun trust me 😉
Buddy you wish anything you said was memorable. Everything out of your mouth is spite and hatred. I have no spare memory for any of that other than my own.
I know. You barely can remember basic school math... leave alone complex macro economics or someone laughing at you for your dumb ideas of "WhY dOn'T Za RiCh gIvE zA pOor moonies", while drooling. Understandable.
Still waiting for the evidence that CERB caused the inflation and not global supply and demand issues. Considering most nations didn't do their own version of CERB but still suffered inflation I think I'm going to be waiting forever.
I mean, you're ignorant enough to fail to understand that most world debt is denominated in US dollars. You really think you understand shit about the world economy to make that statement? Do you even understand why the US dollar is called the "world reserve currency" and what the implications are? Probably not, yet you think you're qualified to open your mouth and have a dumb opinion. Go read a book.
But is this gonna change your mind? Absolutely not. You're gonna find an excuse to question whatever information is delivered with this peer-reviewed paper, because you're in a cult. You're NOT ALLOWED to believe anything outside what the cult taught you. This is why discussions online is a waste of time. Because most people are just cultists.
I mean... you don't even know how the US dollar affects other currencies... how much dumber can you get?! What the fuck do you even know in this world other than what you're taught on mainstream media?
My last response is unchanged. Go read a book. I guess I'll be waiting for that forever.
