Please tell me that Daou is Gun Guy.....

On second thought, my answer should have been, “Like HELL he knows who Wendy Wasserstein is.”

I’m awe-struck by how mind-numbingly fucking dumb the DNC is.

“The DNC has opted to use its wildly limited resources to wage a multi-million dollar lawsuit against the Trump campaign, Wikileaks, and the Russian government”

great investment in time and money, good thing we don’t have an important election coming up that might need funds.

Republican candidates across the U.S. are promising to prosecute women who obtain abortions.

Anyone who has seen Phillipe Reines spin the facts on TV would know he’s a blind Hillary hit-man, like James Carville without the Cajun snarls, a verbal assassin with no regard for the truth.

Reines is one of the most notoriously incompetent buffoons in a crowded club of incompetent buffoons who remained working for Hillary despite over a decade of evidence he couldn’t find his own asshole with both hands and a map.

Unfair coverage of Clinton??? Haha haha! Thanks! I needed a good belly laugh, moron!

That is a badass response by Carolyn Ryan.

I love the hoops Hillary supporters will jump through to try to poke holes or undermine his statement.

Can you just drop a “Thank You for Smoking” reference and expect people to get it? Did I miss when we all agreed that that movie was in the lexicon?

The people that Clinton and her staffers blame for their appalling loss against a candidate that they bolstered is starting to get Khaleesi-length.

As for not having the money - some studies show that UBI could be done for less money than the USA spends on dealing with child poverty. While having a bigger effect on child poverty.

The studies of UBI generally show that people increase the work they do, not decrease - it[s one of the key benefits of the UBI system.

Often this is because people are not penalised for short-term working by a penal or stressful re-entry into the benefits/welfare system.

I thought the idea of UBI was that it covers all basic living expenses and, as such, there’s no need to supplement it with additional income. If you need to work a minimum wage job to make ends meet, then this isn’t really UBI.

That’s...what a UBI is. And of course there’s a stupendous amount of money sloshing around in the US — it’s just a matter of how we want it distributed, like every government policy. Alaska have privatized its oil holdings, and the fact that it didn’t amounts to a massive tax on the companies that would have…

I’d like to hear more about the 1789 idea.......

“Many Americans don’t like the social welfare programs we already have—note the push for “entitlements reform.””

90% top marginal tax rate. Thing is our country used to pay for a lot of things for the public. They just stopped doing it, so that a small group can get massively rich.
