Basic Income, Not Basic Jobs: Against Hijacking Utopia

quote [ Social responsibility. Sense of purpose. Community. Meaningful ways to spend your time. This is some big talk for promoting jobs that in real life are probably going to involve a lot of “Do you want fries with that?” ]

Minimum wage is a part of the jobs program. It is also a common reason proponents of UBI use as a 1/2 step and deterrent to UBI.

Minimum Wages vs. Universal Basic Income

how basic jobs would be problematic because not all employees are a benefit.

Another case of the perfect being the enemy of the good...

That is what this entire brouhaha is about. UBI is an interesting idea one that has merit...but is not at all feasible and it has not even been fully tested.

But lets not kid ourselves this jobs program is not going to be any cake walk. The right is already calling a Communist take over.

BREAKING: Bernie Sanders Set to Unveil a COMMUNIST ‘Jobs Program’

And lets also make clear there is no chance of raising the MW from $7.25 with their congress or this president. Nor does passing the guaranteed job program stand in the way of UBI if and when it is feasible.

And let me also be very clear about this raising theMW HAS NEVER BEEN BAD FOR THE POOR or business or government for that mater.

Doing anything along these lines is going to be difficult and it is going to be hard to fight the right and if we have to fight the left as well because it isn't perfect it will be impossible. But say if somebody laid out a program. ran for president as a mandate...maybe just maybe.

And This is important if you ever associate me with that disgusting racist symbol again we are going to have a serious problem...cuss at me call me names do what ever you thing you need..but...

And I would really like to know why you thought that not buying into the group think on he Robot apocalypse associated me with White Cristian Nationalist in the first place?
