I dig the UBI, but i think minimum wage should be first. It's a much quicker and easier rule to pass than a UBI. I love yangs optimism but his explanations for how he'll pass policy haven't convinced me. I honestly would love to see Yang as Bernie's VP or adviser.
Over 500,000 workers in Kentucky make less than $15 an hour.
@senatemajldr: Why don't they deserve an average raise of $4,300 a year?
Stop blocking legislation to raise the current starvation minimum wage to a living wage of $15 an hour.

No it won’t - I heard it a many times, but have never actually seen companies laying of massive amounts of employees after raising the minimum wage.

This is of course is coming from a guy who when he pressured in to giving his campaign staff an increase in wage to $15 an hour responded by cutting their hours. And he's a millionaire so picture that on a nationwide scale. It will happen.

How about everything will just cost more 6 months later?

Thats not how economics 101 works

Look up what happened in Ontario Canada when they hiked the min wage to 14 an hour. Thats exactly what happened.

Yang does not have the grassroot movement big enough to beat Trump. Doesn't have receipts either. He would need to win over swing states and those voters in more conservative states, not just coastal blue states.

Yang's movement is not as big as Bernie's yet, you are correct. But in just the last 6 months, Yang has gone from an unknown to 1 of 7 candidates with 200k+ donors. And there's still 6 months until Super Tuesday.https://twitter.com/kenwarner/status/1163116972156096512 …

Also a ques I can see voters asking in primary&general is trust. What is the case made 2 trust Yang over some1 like Tulsi or Bernie 2 push relentlessly for policies.Time will tell.May the candidate w best policies, hv working class best interest at
, run a fair campaign, wins. -
I agree with you on this. Tulsi and Bernie have a long and strong record of standing up to corrupt interests. We don't have the same track record to examine with Yang.
-
Best of luck to all candidates fighting for working class. We are on same side after all.

Bernie supporters and Yang supporters have more in common than not. - Andrew Yang https://twitter.com/AndrewYang/status/1153034665386762240 …pic.twitter.com/jK8p69yFmu
