  • Thanks for replying seriously even though I was being a glib asshole! Sorry for that, I honestly thought your first comment was trolling or something.

    I get how good UBI could be for the average American… I’m just extremely skeptical about how it could ever be implemented here, with the attitude people have about “GUBMINT HANDOUTS”. I fully expect our corporate overlords to explain via the media how, if it even got to the point of being seriously discussed anywhere, UBI would mean BROWN PEOPLE LIVING OFF OF YOUR HARD EARNED TAX DOLLARS, and cue a bunch of dumb fucks calling for their senators to vote against something that could make their own lives better.

    I don’t know, good on you for hoping some good might ultimately come of this, but I just can’t picture America learning the right lesson from the consequences of its terrible choices. I mean, what, 49% supported an obviously fascist clown for president, and even after the insanity of only the first few months of this term, still his approval ratings are above 40%? I have no confidence in our people or government.
