Universal Basic Income... "Everybody" Laughed at it when ANDREW YANG proposed it... NOW... We See It Works! Coronavirus Unemployment Checks Saved America. and Now They Are GONE! Remember: Just Tax The Rich and We ALL Can Thrive...

The $600 weekly enhanced unemployment benefit that was part of March's stimulus expired July 31. 

NOW, It's Disaster Economy Time!

Republicans in Congress are largely against extending the benefit, arguing that it disincentives people to return to work, thus preventing the economy from starting up again...  GOP=EVIL

With the coronavirus pandemic throwing many nonessential workers out of the labor force, the bonus has functioned like a universal basic income (a minimum income guaranteed by the government), and it's worked.

Great Book: "The Population Bomb" by Paul Ehrlich - Basically, too many people will cause ecological disaster and mass starvation... written in 1968...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Population_Bomb 

He argued that the growing population placed escalating strains on all aspects of the natural world. "What needs to be done?" he wrote, "We must rapidly bring the world population under control, reducing the growth rate to zero or making it negative. Conscious regulation of human numbers must be achieved. Simultaneously we must, at least temporarily, greatly increase our food production."

What IF Jeff Bezos (Amazon) paid for a Universal Basic Income? After destroying the Jobs of Retail Clerks in Shopping Malls, what will those people do for a living?

Jeff Bezos has enough money to pay every person in the USA a thousand dollars a month... and we the people will spend a lot of that money on Amazon... Why Not?

Obama and Bezos Could Make Basic Income Work... The ex-president should persuade tech billionaires to fund universal pay plans. That’s the best way to see whether they’d work.

With a Universal Basic Income everyone would spend an additional $1,000 a month at American Businesses... and Jeff Bezos could simply pay for it all...

Basic Income: A Radical Proposal for a Free Society and a Sane Economy... 

Great Book: "Give People Money: How a Universal Basic Income Would End Poverty, Revolutionize Work, and Remake the World" by Annie Lowrey

A universal Basic Income could be paid for by a slight increase in taxes for the super rich. What if Bill Gates had only 3.9 billion dollars instead of 4 Billion? He wouldn't even notice the difference but an additional $1,000 a month to a poor person would allow them to feed their children. Feeding children increases the likelihood of them growing up smart... Starvation is not healthy for growing children's brains... 

AND... 

That $1,000 a month would be spent at American Businesses... increasing profits for the Super Rich... so in the end... everyone wins!

A brilliantly reported, global look at universal basic income—a stipend given to every citizen—and why it might be necessary in an age of rising inequality, persistent poverty, and dazzling technology.

Imagine if every month the government deposited $1,000 into your bank account, with nothing expected in return. It sounds crazy. But it has become one of the most influential and hotly debated policy ideas of our time. Futurists, radicals, libertarians, socialists, union representatives, feminists, conservatives, Bernie supporters, development economists, child-care workers, welfare recipients, and politicians from India to Finland to Canada to Mexico—all are talking about UBI.
