RE: Announcing Our New Advisor: Andrew Yang, Democratic Candidate for U.S. President in 2020

in #basicincome6 years ago

I am curioius....how do you plan to support Universal Basic Income in the USA?

Through taxing hard-working citizens to pay for a $1000/ monthly income for those that do NOT work and not participate in a functional society?

Sort:  

Manna is a cryptocurrency so the free market will derive its value along with more details of an asset backed currency that is described in the white paper.

You are obviously missing my point....I have a vague outline about Manna and I am not asking about how Manna function or the white papers. Manna function in the digital world but not in the real world.

Let me rephrase this.....
How does Andrew Yang plan to provide for $1,000/month "Freedom Dividend" to the non-working US citizens?

The only logical answer is "Through taxing hard-working citizens" to pay for a $1000/ monthly income for those that do NOT work and not participate in a functional society. This is a flawed concept and NO One in their right mind will give away free money through force (taxation.) Which is what Andrew Yang is proposing, so don't expect me to vote for him.

I don't think anyone is asking you to vote for anyone. A crypto project having an influencer with reach in traditional politics will be a huge advantage.

Perhaps you should direct your question to Andrew Yang's office or go to his websites.

We do not speak for him or his proposed policies.

He join our project as an advisor. We are not part of his campaign nor taking a stance on it.

His interest in UBI means that Manna is an attractive project to him. Getting more publicity for the work we do along with some of his ideas as a businessman and entrepreneur is invaluable in our opinion.
