Here's how UBI's gonna work:

Step 1: Make Legislation

Step 2: The Fed Spawns Money

Step 3: I Sign Up To Get The Money

Step 4: The System Corrects Itself

>>12901994

What you faggots are forgetting is that the USA is the biggest, baddest superpower in the fucking world, with the power to destroy all life on the planet a million times over. Nothing bad will ever happen to us no matter what we do. If we die, everybody dies. It doesn't matter that we're trillions of dollars in debt. What is anyone gonna do about it?

Let's say that I have a gun to your head. I say: "I'll trade you this rock for your gold nugget." You're gonna trade me and you're gonna like it. That's US policy.

Step 1: Make Legislation

Which is going to require the House and the Senate to create the bill in the first place. The president has no powers in such actions beyond just signing it.

Step 2: The Fed Spawns Money

Which is going to see a small "increase" in spending before the big plunge due to how the money is now worthless.

Step 3: I Sign Up To Get The Money

You don't even have to work to get it? Then what incentive is there for people to do work, to produce anything, to do something productive with their life?

Step 4: The System Corrects Itself

<"Bread lines are a good thing"?

What you faggots are forgetting is that the USA is the biggest, baddest superpower in the fucking world, with the power to destroy all life on the planet a million times over.

You've watched far too many movies and can't tell the difference between reality and fiction.

Nothing bad will ever happen to us no matter what we do.

As long as the politicians don't do anything to cause a civil war, or another power doesn't take advantage of the U.S. when it's in a vulnerable position (With even our closest allows constantly looking for ways to stab us in the back).

If we die, everybody dies.

No, the other world powers will just see it a "the thorn in their side" finally coming to an end.

It doesn't matter that we're trillions of dollars in debt. What is anyone gonna do about it?

Demand payment and cause the country to go into bankruptcy?

GIVE ME FREE SHIT OR I'LL KILL YOU

How does that work? All that's going to do is give someone an incentive to KILL YOU because you pose a threat to their livelihood. And, on top of that, what is "free shit" honestly going to be of value to you when it's worthless in the first place?

That was a very rational and well constructed takedown of my position. You get an A for this semester. Well done. You're on track to graduate with a perfect 4.0 GPA, and get a cushy office job. Again, really good job.
