Let's say Congress allows SCrhumpts $2000 a head plan , I will argue it is the begining of Universal Basic Income cause if SCrumpft does it once, each president going forward will be able to do it and thus it will grow into an expectancy and UBI will be implemented, even if the name is other. But anyway...

If $2000 a head happens. 

Question, where is the place you have the greatest comradery offline with black people? or where offline are you part of the largest black group?

The answer to the questions above is A.

B= Number of people who get $2000( A)  equivalent to how many people in A get $2000

C=B*financial sharing per head. Financial sharing per head is how much each person in A who got $2000 will give, an equal value per head. 

C is the money your group offline can have for a cause. 

Now, in my economic corner edition 28 I suggest an even way to implement how to use, but implementation is a varied thing so I will not state here.

But, I argue a lot of potential little million people marches in the black populace in the usa can occur. Start one. 

 

So few seem to be talking about doing something in a group anywhere. I  think it is interesting how many in the usa, seem to be open to the money to use for self but few for a collective anything.  While the people who will have nothing to do with a collective action will then suggest individuals need to make the collective better...

Money is meaningless if it is not put to good use

 

1) Needs have to be identified before a dime is spent.

 

2) A plan including actions and milestones has to be drawn up and agreed upon to accomplish the goals that address those needs.

 

Since AI will eventually turn the labor market upside down, some type of Universal Basic Income (UBI) i.e. expanded welfare will have to be instituted in order for Americans to survive. 

 

Otherwise, handing out $2,000 per person especially those who don't have it already will lead to more consumerism.

 

Look no further back than those pandemic stimulus checks. 

 

Most folks will spend the money putting it right back into the economy instead of making the money work for them.😎

I haven't followed this $2,000 story much because I don't think Trump is serious about it.
richarmurray talks about Universal Basic Income....so is he talking about giving it to people MONTHLY or is this just another one time deal kind of like the stimulus checks for Covid?


I think it's just a gimmick to keep the poor and working class people who actually NEED the money wishing and hoping for some sort of "present" they can waste away on weed and liquor.

Low intelligence people are easily "bought off" with cheap gifts and trinkets, while more intelligent people look at the LONG TERM aspect and what offers the most benefit in the long run.

Don't cut off people's SNAP benefits for a month and jack insurance rates up sky high or kick them off of medicaid and other service which will cost them TENS of thousands of dollars this year....but then give them $2000 back.

Most people don't think.
They don't care how many jobs are lost or how how many illegal immigrants have just be let go because some "judge" said they couldn't be detained and now will take THEIR jobs....as long as they can get a little quick $2000 and run down to the nearest weed dispensary.

This carrot would be a one-time payment similar to those pandemic checks.

Definitely a gimmick to make people feel better.

Right. The net benefit is zero especially if folks are going to spend it on BS instead of investing it in something that actually makes more money.😎
