I think we can agree "when you give poor people money to spend, they don't end up spending more money" is an extraordinary claim. And so should need an extraordinary amount of evidence to back it up. Can you point me in the right direction to some more information about how this could possibly be true?
- yorwba 9y agoI don't see anyone upthread making that claim you are challenging. Could you point me to the comment you meant to respond to?
- JamesBarney 9y agoMany of the comments up thread said redistribution doesn't work. Working is defined as reducing poverty levels which is literally measured by how much money they spend. And redistribution is literally giving poor people money. I.e. giving poor people money doesn't end up with the poor spending more money.
