Sure, clearly we should just be printing even more money...why stop at 80% wage? Why not 100%?
What works in England doesn't necessarily work in the US, and presuming that Republicans are just being greedy is naive and counterproductive.
- sjg007 6y agoIt would work as would UBI. We can print money everyone else is. It'll cost even more otherwise.
- JoeAltmaier 6y agoSure it has to work out fiscally. But America is spending hugely on public assistance now (housing included). One scenario is to cease those programs and turn to the UBI. It adds up very similarly. At some point, digging into the details, you find the single largest obstacle to a UBI is entrenched ideas and naysayers. Call them Republican or whatever you like, but they're the ones being naive and counterproductive.
