Is it possible to be stupider then a liberal?

Some of you guys are showing your white privileged lives if you think 1800 isn’t enough to live on, that’s better than minimum wage when all you need is stay home, family of 4 will be making 86,400 a year, many years of ranching and supporting a family of 6 I sure as heck didn’t even gross 86 thousand.

Those that want to sit at home and collect $1800.00 a month only means there will be more opportunity for my children who want to work and succeed.

Yes I know your all going to say my children will be heavily taxed to pay for the ones who want to stay home and collect, but those with great work ethic, ambitious, and educated will be unstoppable. Every family member and close friends of mine who have young adults are all doing great even in these times of Covid. Have business and great jobs.

This is nothing new, those on welfare have being doing it for years, and will simply roll over into this new form of welfare.

I'm in no way supporting hands outs, but this is nothing new some people just don't want to work no matter what, because more than likely they have parents who were the same and taught them nothing.

Do you guys not feel your children will still prosper, or are you worried they will be collecting $1800.00 a month.

I'm betting they'll prosper.

Yeah if my kids elected to stay on the farm and got married, this farm would rake in 18 000 a month. Should be enough to get by.

I think using 1800 bucks doesn’t fit most situations. There are usually two 18 plussers. 3600 changes the idea quite a bit.

Called white privileged because I take pride in working....lovely.

Most making minimum wage are doing just fine, a little poverty never hurt anyone and it will probably teach most people something, some people couldn’t get buy on 20 thousand a month, it’s all about how resourceful one can be.

If someone can sit at home and make the same as a minimum wage earner what is the incentive to start working and try to become better, we don’t all start at the top.

I’m not calling out anyone for working hard I’m calling you out for thinking 99% of the world’s population has a sad existence.

I was thinking about this being used for under employed young people, maybe someone downsized later in life etc. Someone who had an illness etc.

I never though about a situation where an entire able bodied family under one roof converts to it.

I see a overlap of two programs welfare and UBI at the expense of health care and infrastructure. That will take twice as many people to look after programs. We have been told that would not happen but we all know governments don't get smaller. Where does the money come from ?

[SASKFARMER]

Here is a comparable.

A young couple with two kids moves from the city selling their home with 100000 equity buy a home in small-town and then take the guaranteed income that's 3600 a month plus one parent they look after. $5400.00 take home.

Tell me why you would work?

It was the topic at coffee last night.
The example guy in town was brought
Up. He was pretty good at doing nothing before.
He likely will not change. Others will grab the
Opportunity.
Something is going to have to happen, what ?
60% of jobs will be replaced with machines.
It is a recipe for disaster, when all the wealth created by
The tech goes to the 1% that own it.
Where are the consumers with $ to buy the stuff the machines just made.
I do not know if guaranteed income is the answer , but what will you do with all those people that are too expensive to employ VS the machine that works around the clock for the cost of electricity.
