        Yep, it won't work because Congress will pass a law excluding themselves from the higher tax. After all, they already did that once before with Obamacare.

        Most rich people are job creators. That’s how they got rich by building businesses. I never once got a job from somebody that was drawing welfare

        "Put it in our hands because we know best how to use it." This is precisely the reason I don't like Yang as a politician.

        VAT + UBI combo means that only people who spend more than 10k/mo. on non-staple goods would be paying more than they receive. This group is the top 6% of earners- not the middle class.
