Now that the dust has sort of settled, what are you thoughts on Andrew Yang and his policies?
These include:
-Universal Basic Income
-Democracy Dollars (disposable income that could only be used for political campaigns) <--- this is meant to help stop the rich from buying elections and make them more democratic
-Universal Healthcare

Regarding UBI, here a pasta (a good one):
The current system rewards bad actors by enabling those who exploit desperation—through low wages, predatory lending, or monopolistic practices—to thrive, while discouraging ethical productivity. It also sustains lazy behavior at the top, where inherited wealth and corporate welfare allow some to extract value without creating it. Meanwhile, many hard-working people are stuck in cycles of underpaid work that serve neither their growth nor society’s progress, ensuring that systemic inefficiency and exploitation remain the norm.

Reminder:
Humanity's modern scarcity-based system treats survival as a competition, so it rewards behaviors that concentrate resources upward—extraction, exploitation, and short-term profit—while punishing empathy and cooperation, which can look “inefficient” in a zero-sum game; this doesn’t mean wealth itself is evil, but that the rules tend to elevate those most willing to externalize harm, while pushing everyone else into stress, fear, and desperation just to meet basic needs. Andrew Yang argued that when people live under constant scarcity, society gets worse outcomes across the board, and his vision of abundance—anchored by Universal Basic Income—was about guaranteeing a floor beneath everyone so survival wasn’t at stake. UBI would have reduced desperation, increased freedom and dignity, encouraged healthier risk-taking like entrepreneurship or caregiving, and shifted incentives away from predatory behavior, helping the system heal by letting humans act more human when their basic needs are met.

Programs like UBI do the opposite of inflation and provide a deflationary pressure. If you print money then yes there is inflation -- But Yang's plan didn't call for printing money but instead a Value-Added Tax. Everyone pays in, but those who consume the most pay in the most. This tends to be the wealthier. The wealthier also spend their money slower than someone living paycheck to paycheck. Then everyone gets the same amount back: $1,000/mo. By increasing the purchasing power of the lower tier, you increase the velocity of money (how quickly the same dollar bill is spent). Each time the dollar exchanges hands economic activity is generated. The more often and quickly this happens, the more the economy grows. As the economy grows there are increased production efficiencies and more competition in the marketplace. This brings prices down. Since the total money supply didn't change, boom: deflation, not inflation. Yang isn't a politician. He has a degree in Economics from Brown and a Law Degree from Columbia. He knows this stuff, and he knows politicians from both sides aren't doing anything to help us, so he tried.

The problem is that other states besides California exist and they are all fucking retarded. He wouldn't get any of this passed.

Any technicality has bad faith loopholes, and Indians will scam it against the spirit of the technicality.

Western privatized (((democracy))) is a perfect system for the rich. The Billionaires own everything in democracy from the media to internet companies, they have total control over what news people see and have connections in the Gov with any politician they want. There is a reason why this system is promoted so powerful and promoted so much. It's a Prince of Darkness disguised as Angel of Light.
Assuming that he won somehow, Yang would eventually end up working for Silicon Valley CEOs

The government would pay for UBI the way it pays for anything else -- by crediting a bank account.

>>541665662
I think he was a bit of a clown, but all the refutations of UBI aged so poorly. We've almost doubled the debt since then and just spent it on israel instead

Chinese in America cannot be trusted.
They are all extensions of their home country. China. There are no Chinese living abroad who are not beholden to China. Especially if they still have friends or family back in China that the Chinese Communist Party government can use as leverage to force their obedience.

Why would anyone vote a literal Chinese owned asset? It's a literal spy, a literal double agent. China would never elect a white man in charge of any position of power or allow foreigners to purchase their land.
>>
Imagine voting for a literal foreign asset. I don't understand muttmericans, why would they allow foreigners to participate in elections? If you vote a chienese into power they will sabotage your country to favor their homeland, same if you vote and indian, or any other foreign group, that's why democracy doesn't work.

Yang strikes me as much more sophisticated than 99% of the geezers in government, but that might just be the lack of senility. UBI always struck me as a bandaid. I think it would do weird things to the monetary supply and economy in ways that aren't obvious on the surface. A more effective solution might be something like a social dividend, however, some mechanism needs to be in place to award those who contribute more than the baseline. Of course the whole AI labor-replacement thesis says that human labor will be rendered irrelevant. This always struck me as a fantasy. The reason is quite basic: it's much easier to produce a human being than it is to manufacture a robot with equal capabilities; we'd need biocybernetic technology that is self-reparing and self-reproducing to even approximate this. The precious minerals and other hardware that's required to build comparable robots is too scarce and there will be too much fighting around it to justify pursuing it. Biology has a way of synthesizing materials which is lightyears beyond our technical capability

See point 9 of the Frankfurt School's 11-point agenda.

This guy does not name the jew; he does not advocate the abolition of the (((federal reserve))); he does not advocate anything which would free our country from jewish control. Instead, he wants to increase the jewish control by making people entirely dependent on the (((state))) for survival. In order to receive your fiat toilet-paper UBI bucks which you would need to survive, you would have to comply with whatever social credit score system the state would impose that would accompany it. It would not be conditionless. You said an antisemitism? No UBI toilet-paper bucks for you. Didn't get jabbed? Same thing, and so on.

This guy comes from Communist China and wants to impose that level of authortiarianism here.

NTA. He's from China. He is also literally advocating a social credit system like they have there. What he's proposing is the antipode of Libertarianism.
