    That's it.

    Forgot to follow that anagram it needs to be UNIVERSAL which means "for all". You won't be able to tax enough to pay all enough. And it being welfare isn't ever going to happen.

    Uh, no. Thanks for trying though.

      UBI only requires that the rich pay their share in taxes. I favor a large enough UBI coupled with basic guarantees (medical, housing, education) and certain other mean-tested benefits (such as "adversity" scoring in college admissions) that all other forms of social assistance are eliminated.

      We're going to stop rationing basic needs using money. They will become non-negotiable rights. After a few generations our system will be seen as the slavery it has always been.

      Extreme wealth will still let doofuses buy expensive toys and take expensive vacations. Otherwise it won't mean much. Not having money will not prevent a human being from fulfilling their potential.

      You monkey people will just have to find another way to show off to each other. I suggest ludicrous body modifications so we can laugh at you.

              Welfare then. Not "universal"

              Even with the sweet name, it's DOA and whomever supports will never win.

                I guess I really don't care to answer whatever question you think you might have. Sorry. My question garnered a lot of discussion so I guess it was worth it.

                        The question was what does your latest whining fest have to do with his running for President? And it didn't happen in the way you think it did. Thanks

                          Aaah, yes, the whine narrative. Blow me.

                          Since no one cares about my thoughts on the candidates I guess I will just refrain from commenting then. Thanks.

                              I think it all has to do with getting elected. There are parts of the Democratic Party (myself for one) that will not vote for Joe in the primary because of this stupidity. He gets my vote for President over Trump but that, as we saw in 2016, may not be enough to get everyone out. I see a percentage of the progressives staying home if he or Gillibrand gets the nomination.

                                Then let them get fuked! I'm not sure why this isn't getting through the thick skulls of some people. Its convenient to say if the nominee isn't liberal enough you won't vote. The problem is who is "liberal enough" is in the eye of the beholder. Kep for example said Mike Dukakis was a centrist nominee. The point is, if Bernie doesn't win, trix is going to label ANY nominee, be it Warren, Harris, Buttigieg, etc - as a closet conservative. Heck, just today it came out that Warren has done legal work for...(gasp) Big Corporations. There's no way to logically appeal to someone like that.
