First Democrat Trump Challenger for POTUS

[Catskillkid]

Came across this article today about a guy running for President in 2020 under the Democratic line. His main platform is a universal basic income. I browsed his other policy positions and he's very unfriendly to the 2nd Amendment (shocking). He's also a native upstate NYer and the son of Taiwanese immigrants. One would think with the sector of communist China looming over Taiwan he'd be a little less socialist.

This 43-year-old running for president in 2020 wants to give everyone $1,000 a month in free cash

 

[Defilade]

Well if they can't win any other way might as well buy votes! Lol

Unfortunately he'll want to raise everyone's taxes by $1500 a month to cover the benefit and administration costs.

My first thought is that an opponent like this would be a gift to Trump - but there are a lot of stupid people out there.

This is not a successful billionaire turned philanthropist. This is a failed attorney (only held a job for 5 months), who then tried to start one internet business that failed, and has since been a community organizer (calling himself an entrepreneur) under his non profit, living off private donations. Because he is a small time professional parasitic leech he may have a future in politics, especially since he has shown he knows how to take someone elses money in a philanthropic sham. I'll bet the democratic nominee will merely be the highest bidder at giving away our money and future.

Ammo money.

 

[oc shooter]

are we sure he's human!!!!

Drug addicts, welfare receipients, alcoholics will LOVE this guy

Just about sums up the entire democratic voting base...left out illegals....that vote is important to the dems

[E the massive]

I'm running for president in 2020 also.

Especially because they can choose to keep thier welfare benefits. Who would I’ve them up right.

 

[Saltwater60]

I don’t understand why we will tax robots enough to pay for people to not work why not just put people to work. Drug use, obesity, suicide rates, crime rates, and early death will dramatically increase if we do this.

I’ll just buy guns and ammo for a while then a really sweet freaking car. Also what will the people over 65 do. Just doe and wither away.

Many people on welfare will stop working so the tax revenue will drop. Will this be taxed as income?
There is 206 million adults between 18-64 times 1000 equals 206,000,000,000 in output and they say the tax will add 700,000,000,000 What will they do with the extra?

This is the wing-nut time to shine before the darlings of the Fake News Networks (you know ABC, CBS, NBC) pick their favored candidates, right now it looks like they are all hot and bothered by Beto-male O'Rourke, Senator Harris, and Senator Booker.

Im about 1 politician away from becoming @Eddie Gunks. new neighbor.

 

[99cummins]

Didn’t we already have someone with this “qualification”?

I was thinking the same after looking at some of his pictures. Aside from the BBQ crickets and worms.

We could have a "NYGF ex-pat commune" over in SEA.
Eddie would love it!!!!

lets say they distribute $1,000 x month to 90 million Americans.

90M x 1,000 x 12 = 1.08 Trillion Dollars x Year.

Considering there are about 102-103M taxpayers this will increase the debt per taxpayer by $10.5K a year that
is over a 10% of what each tax payer has accumulated in the last 40 years and since 1980 where the national debt
was below 1 trillion dollars.

So in other words, it is not fucking possible even if you slave people to work only for you and others.

So they do not have a fucking idea what they are saying.

Typical liberal feel good fantasy mambo jambo to appeal to the ignorant, the thugs and the lazy.

Universal basic income has and is being tried and has had a number of problems.

Universal basic income had a rough 2018

[MadScientist]

Inspired me to run for Democratic ticket in 2020. Gonna start a “gun welfare” program. We use taxpayer money to help people exercise their totally invented right to rip living fetal tissue out of their uterus, why can’t we subsidize an actual right found in the Bill of Rights?

THIS IS COMMON SENSE GUN REFORM PEOPLE...

If this did come to pass people like me would put that $1200 into a Roth IRA for the future, any idea where the people that want this would put/spend it?
As a side note just how high would this raise the cost of living? Why not just raise the minimum wage to $40 per hr (sarcasm)
