Good to see @elonmusk and @AndrewYang on the same page about Universal Basic Income #UBI!
Is it just me or does Elon look a bit different in this?https://twitter.com/adrlenard/status/1169169153896452096 …
https://slatestarcodex.com/2019/08/01/squareallworthy-on-ubi-plans/ … is a quick look, or tldr, "most UBI plans fail on basic math"

Meme driven policy - maybe even if the plans fail on basic math, it will have been worth it to get a lot more people talking about
#UBI and potentially coming up with better plans? -
Maybe? I like the idea of people wanting to try something totally new and revolutionary, but I'm worried about like... everything that usually happens when people get excited about something without paying attention to the math.

I'm not able to read this article at the moment, but the tldr is that UBI adds to budget deficit?

I like the idea of UBI in general - or at least I want something that effectively fulfills the purpose of "basic needs are met with no effort". I am continually skeptical about how practical UBI is given the systems in place, though.
