What do you think of andrew yang?
that asian dude who says hes gonna give everyone 18+ $1000 dollars a month for life?
Where's all the money coming from? The fuckin money tree? Total goofball.
T.L.Where's all the money coming from? The fuckin money tree? Total goofball.
maybe if you actually watched ANY of the videos, he literally answers that immediately
Yang is the only reasonable candidate on the dem ticket.
He would definitely win office if it was him vs Trump.

I fucking hate working so I’d be fine with this.
DIRTYBUBBLEI fucking hate working so I’d be fine with this.
If only that number we're...say...$10,000 per month I could afford to live where I do and not work.
UBI seems like a pretty reasonable idea overall.
They could start by providing decent healthcare, that'd be pretty cool too!
its a terrible idea

There's only two ways to come up with that kind of cash. Print it or steal it. Feel free to send links to the videos.
funny bc lazy ass fucking millennials would actually vote for that clown
If ying would be vp then it'd be ying and yang
Rather see Inslee so we all don't boil to death when we're old.

Do more research before calling him a goofball. Amazon paid 0 dollars in taxes last year.
That's 12k a year=4 trillion$ a year. I think his reasoning is the money will go back into the economy but so many people will just screw around all day instead of working. Plus it'll just be borrowed and add onto the national debt and we really need to be paying down the debt not adding to it.

I'm not 100% sold on a UBI, at least not for a good while, but would probably vote for him over the current democratic frontrunners.
For the people saying that this will make people not work, have fun living off $1000 a month. I believe if you take this money you would no longer qualify for any other welfare programs.
After looking through his policy stances on his website I agree with just about all of them. I doubt UBI will get passed within the next 20 years but think he would do the best job at helping middle and lower class Americans and I think he is hitting the nail on the head that a lot of the issues our country is facing now are because so many Americans are struggling financially, even the hardworking ones.

just wanted to say that if you take what he is saying at surface value it may sound pretty unrealistic / stupid, but if you watch any interview hes done he makes sense. he literally went on an interview with ben shapiro that you can watch. yanggang2020

You have a valid argument. But a pack of smokes shouldn't cost $8.

$8 a pack pales in comparison to cancer
He’s one of my favorites for sure. Can’t say I’m totally into the UBI but I like his out-of-the-box thinking.

15k for housing
5k for food
2.6k in tax advantage
For a grand total of 22.6k a year. About 10k more a year than what yang is proposing! Stupid entitled cops, service workers, construction workers and firefighters wanting 12k a year!
As well as healthcare and a salary. With how many years you have been in your salary is probably around 30k-33k if your enlisted.
I don't like taxes and I don't like the government. I especially don't like when my taxes go towards your lift kits and lite beers.
Your posts read like a 17 year old Airforce JROTC kid's facebook page.

in what fucking world so police officers make 12k? on AVERAGE they make around 50k.... construction workers make stupid money too, especially if theyre state workers. you do not know anything and both of your posts where you reply to me you've literally made shit up, yet stupid gullible teens will vote your shit up

trump is only going backwards. the reason he won was because we automated however many jobs in swing states that trump one. trump is a symptom. we need to move forward, not backwards. the gdp is rising but we shouldnt base our economic progress on gdp alone. our GDP is rising but mental health is plummeting. andrew yang will save the universe from climate change and trump

You must not be familiar with the definition of "majority" then.

trump 2020
Wow. Talk about an r/whooosh. The required reading level to be enlisted must have dropped.
Yang has proposed giving citizens 12k a year if they are over 18.Never once did I say that cops made 12k. For some reason you seem to think that means only druggies, hippies and people with undergraduate degrees. There are plenty of people in the U.S. who don't get paid nearly enough to do what they do, and that money would go to them as well. Don't worry frenchy, the money wouldn't only be going towards minorities and liberals.
What about vets? Wouldn't it be great if the people who served our country and were tossed onto the streets by the armed forces had something helping them go steady? Why are you against people getting helped? You're cool with guys like Jeff Bezos making billions of dollars while not paying any taxes while the middle class continues to struggle?
I don't know what I made up. First post was greentext. The numbers I pulled for your comp were an estimate based off of army recruitment.
It really confuses me too that you are such a die hard trump guy when he has a record of shitting on the military. I come from a military family and it rustles my jimmies when a guy who hasn't served is making fun of vets.

Please be trolling.
Our GDP is rising but our mental health is plummeting?
You're not wrong though. Our economy is without a doubt killing it right now and millions of semi-conscious people have been convinced that our president is a puppet of moscow and that socialism + more government will save us from evil.
Truly bizarre times.
Chron_Rabbitwouldn't inflation just make this policy useless if it went through ?
Competition would keep prices down. For example a grocery store isn't going to jack up the price of bread just because everyone has more money because there will be another store that won't increase price. If the grocery store doesn't see any tax increase there profits stay the same. Companies that are enjoying very low tax rates would see an increase so they might raise prices to compensate, but then your local and small businesses would be able to compete easier.
I like his ideas but think USA is to large for them to really work out at the moment.

I disagree. companies will realize they can charge more for goods and services. Peep zimbabwe
everyone who is replying to this thread doubting obviously hasn't done any research on the guy and his policies
Jeff bezos licks nutt, eat the rich but tax them first

The UBI would use money that is already in the economy not new printed money, therefore Zimbabwe isn't a good comparison.

So you disagree that prices of goods and services wouldn't go up if every adults income rose by 12k a year?

Prices won't increase much unless it costs more to make them, which thanks to automation would remain level in many industries. For a lot of goods there is plenty to go around therefore I dont think that demand would pass the supply which would justify price increase. I can however see the price of rent or housing going up especially in urban areas where there is already a shortage.
My only fear is that a UBI might encourage automation and putting people out of work. At the same time though automation will be necessary to compete with other countries. I like the idea of UBI I just dont think it is time yet maybe in 10 or 20 years.
Yang seems to be addressing the future unlike most politicians. If technology continues to improve many more people will be out of work especially low skilled people and I doubt there will be enough new jobs to replace those.

i find this to be a good explanation but i do think that we need it now. the reason trump won is because we automated millions of jobs away in many of the swing states ie. ohio michigan etc. as well as amazon is closing 30% of malls and retail stores and not paying federal taxes. the americans need a cut
