#1.. How do YOU know what percentage of my income I'm donating? Psychic are we?
#2. What have YOU done? Can't or won't answer that question will you?
Jamestown, 1607 they tried communal stores ..........read and weep. All through history there are the have's and have not's the work and work nots. The sincere and the scammers,..... You can't fix it from your sofa.
That would mean that wether I do a good job or a poor one, I get the same pay .
Typical liberal thinking.
Quality in your products you buy better be right , but your own out put doesn't matter .
hypocrite
Quality comes from competition worth working for.
Russa tried this and , oh ya it didn't work.
The only other way to get performance is slavery like china.
that of course is where we are headed, progressives.

like i said, why even bother going to school at all, when you can push a broom, or empty trash cans and earn the same as a nurse or software engineer.
News, Giving All Americans a Basic Income Would End Poverty
I thought that is what is happening now, at least for the poor, it's called welfare.
Welfare discourages self improvement. Given no better options for these people its a great program. But I would argue that a guarenteed income would go far further towards providing motivation to better oneself.
Right now...if you are on welfare, and get a job you can make the same amount, receive no benefits, and have your housing and food put at risk by being laid off or fired. Plus less free time.
Guaranteed income would open up the possibility that working would be a net benefit instead of a break even high risk venture.
If you think Somalia is an example of anything besides anarchy and lawlessness, then hit a dictionary. You're using the same logical fallacy that libs often do. Some of us see around your bull. You guys are walking logical fallacy case studies.
Except pure Capitalism IS anarchy. How about you hit the dictionary?
I would rather see that money go towards free higher education and trade school education.
I'm onboard provided it's a one time grant for every American without any government strings attached so the political class can't manipulate the program for their own benefit.
