The left is working on it. A basic income is from the left. The right only has a, "work or die" ethic.Absolutely not.
The War On Drugs has been totally counterproductive for all but a few beneficiaries such as the pharmaceutical industry, the liquor industry, the legal profession, the prison industrial complex, the law-enforcement complex, the drug-testing industry, the drug cartels and the corrupted political representatives who continue to vote for continuance of this obviously failed and harmful fiasco.
"Attempting to solve a problem by doing the same thing over and over and over and expecting a different result is one definition of insanity." (Albert Einstein) In this example the repetition does not reflect insanity but rather conspicuous corruption.
The same could be said about the war on poverty, but as the far left implements their policies, people seem to stay poor and the rich get richer.
So based on this logic the war on poverty should be abandoned.
