yet 6 $trillion from thin air to bail out big business, no problemo, signed by lunchtime.
Though I don't agree with UBI. It makes people dependent on government, who can fiddle figures to pay less, as with state pensions.
What's really needed is UBE - universal basic equity. Every citizen gets a stake (not 100%) in all of business, and shares in profits and dividends, derived from the economy they work to maintain and expand.
