How serious are you about finding out? If you want to invest time into it, round robin applications. For example, if you need 3 references per application, get 4 then cycle them in sets of 3 each time. Or find an application that requires

How can an inanimate object be charged with a crime? It's inanimate, so by definition cannot make a decision... Also, if they're confiscating assets, why not confiscate the car? Why just the cash/cards? How do we get this a

Under UBI the payment and coverage of UBI would be one of, if not the, largest expenditures of government. Vital to getting votes will be keeping the amount received steady and high. And that might mean printing money if necessary. With l

I agree with most of your points but one stands out. Tor is absolutely perceived as a threat to US national and general security. The silk road takedown put it vividly on radar. The goal of an operation like this would be to replace the n

In difficult times people stop spending money, even with UBI. This means less income to spread around, the solution, print more money = inflation. Second, under UBI a proportion of the population stops working and this increases over time

Pay out UBI daily? The technology exists, no reason not to do it that way. Also the only way to make a basic income work is through a land or land value tax. Else you get massive inflation.

The policy is great for Indians and the companies involved. Jobs mean money to spend and a thriving economy. The same policy implemented here would be great to rebuild our crumbling economy and get money flowing.

Would a yearly single flat tax of XX% of total net worth for every human in the world solve the problem? Essentially a literal redistribution of wealth, but could it work?
