Panama, afaik doesn’t get paid. Just gets continued invasion threats no matter how much they bend over.

El Salvador could double its GDP if they can just keep 1.75M prisoners alive. ($35B/year)

    You know, I bet there’d be a lot fewer pretty crimes if we were all given a 1600/mo UBI.

      A more right wing UBI that was denied to immigrants, but still gave them a path to eventual citizenship “in exchange for slavery” would have pretty high wage jobs available to them and also a good alternative to crime. UBI is the only path to social harmony and peace.

      $20k/year conditional only on being a Venezuelan gang member in US, would have perverse, and divisive, incentives. But boost tatoo industry.
