Liberal County in NoVa Giving Basic Income to Low-Income Because….Other People Have More Money than they Do

[initforme]

Go where? Hous paid for long ago ..parasite? For working? You lost this debate big time.

Why should I keep an open mind? I am opposed to people being given money for no other reason than “other people have more and we need to make things more equal”. We are already handing out so much free stuff - subsidized or free rent, free meals, food stamps, Medicaid, government support checks, etc. etc. - that people have no incentivize to learn a trade or profession that will enable them to support themselves.

"Why should I keep an open mind?" Well, there it is, folks.

Why will the paper mill be gone? You are against workers making a decent wage? Explain your stance.

Got to keep them smiling so they'll stay on the commiecrat plantation.

The number one thing they had to do was destroy the Trump economy. They did that. Now they have to lie about how this is actually better. It’s not selling.

UBI or Universal Basic Income is something that a lot of people have pondered over for a long time. Some, like Andrew Yang, have speculated that it could save the country money in the long term as a replacement to food stamps, public housing, Medicaid, etc.

I'm open to seeing whether or not it can work. Nothing wrong with experimentation.

we can always import more haitians and afghans and somalians to do the work

It’s the ticking reply button you retarded ****. The second one from the right at the bottom. Maybe you should take a break from the board and figure that out so we know who the hell you’re taking to.

You're an ignorant ****. There has been no debate. Your trolling is all you've offered, so if you have nothing of substance just run along parasite. What have you offered to society to justify your useless existence?

 

[Turtlesoup]

Good grief. Low-income people didn’t have to to pay rent for a year, are now getting a $300 per child per month government support check, Medicaid for the whole family, free school lunches, and now…..a “basic additional handout.”

Fairfax County seeks to break cycle of poverty with basic income pilot | FFXnow

A pilot program that will give monthly cash assistance to select low-income residents is in development in Fairfax County. While eligibility criteria, payment amounts, and other details are still being determined, the county has allocated $1.5 million to the effort from its American Rescue Plan...

Get real. The government never replaces programs. It adds new shit and keeps the old. The idea UBI would replace food stamps and other welfare is a naive pipe dream.

That guy is a bigtime liar. He's been busted lying and just disappears then shows up with another lie in another thread, like a whack a mole.

Explain yours, moron. When you graduate from fifth grade and you get an idea how economy works come back. Until then Educate yourself.

Who pays for it. All of us?

 

[initforme]

There are alit of jobs open. That enables the hardest working people on this earth(Americans)...to pick the highest paying ones they can find. Workers are gaining a little. That's a great thing. Nobody loses.

 

[initforme]

If you disagree with someone there is zero need to name call. Grow up and offer a rebuttal to the topic.

 

[initforme]

Workers making a higher wage, businesses having to compete hard for workers, is a good thing. Everyone wins.

 

[Lisa558]

Effort is tied to pay. That's as American as it gets.

No, contribution and value is tied to pay. This is the world of grownups….not the school where you get an A for effort.

Business has always competed for "qualified" workers. They have paid people for the value of their work. If you sweep floors for a living, you can't expect the same wage as someone who keeps your car running. A floor sweeper needs to increase his value by improving his skills, otherwise he will remain a low wage worker.

 

[initforme]

I agree. So if those jobs aren't that valuable then if some of them go unfilled is that such a bad thing?

 

[Concerned American]

Workers making a higher wage, businesses having to compete hard for workers, is a good thing. Everyone wins.

A business will not exist for long if it pays its employees a value greater than they produce. That's the facts in this cold hard world.
