Sure, what you're describing is the quantity theory of money, but there are other reasons why you could see inflation given a universal income, depending on the circumstances. If you consider the velocity of money, you will almost cert

Stop making excuses for her. Many of us grew up in abusive households and/or have suffered emotional and mental breakdowns. She murdered her 4 year old child. And not manslaughter or crime of passion or whatever murder - but cold blood

I agree. While pinpointing the exact definition of a "tech company" is a game of semantics, I think it's pretty clear that they're simply a meal-prep delivery service. Same goes for Casper, which dubs itself a "slee

We already do this. Large level dealers/kingpins are prosecuted to the fullest extend of the law and often receive extremely long sentences. However, as has been proven, it doesn't work. Your point about Singapore is taken though,

I'm a die hard social libertarian and free speech advocate. Your (and the medias) attempts to frame this as a free speech issue is comical, bordering on delusional. If you want to defend free speech, you'd be better served talking

This is utterly incorrect and not at all what the neoclassical micro/marco economic laws suggest. For the sake of brevity, you are not making the proper distinction between demand and quantity demanded - a change in the price of labor
