Prikvačeni tweet
Good evening. I'd like to talk to you about the most important justification for universal basic income, one that doesn't get discussed enough, which is sad, because it is THE argument for UBI. So, gather round the camp fire! THREAD

Why would you object to a policy based on having to pay in taxes money that would not be in your possession in the first place without the spending generated by the policy? It's like objecting to eating because you'll have to take a dump later. HELLO!https://twitter.com/JamesRobichaux/status/1203492348669419520?s=20 …

Taxation *cannot be* a cost of UBI, because the entire point of UBI is that people will SPEND the money, sending it TO the people pretending to be burdened with the taxes "to pay for it." And I don't understand why UBI advocates don't point this out.https://twitter.com/JamesRobichaux/status/1137384667580108807?s=20 …

THAT is why the more intelligent anti-UBI people are opposed to it. They just *claim* that their objection has to do with other things like taxes because that is an objection that is easier for them to defend. DON'T FALL FOR IT.https://twitter.com/JamesRobichaux/status/1166558334566248448?s=20 …

But, if you are someone who treats wait staff, service workers, and employees like chattel or robots, you'll be paying the highest body rent in a UBI society. Which is why, if you are such a person, you probably already are staunchly opposed to UBI.https://twitter.com/fabianacecin/status/1163329743590252544?s=20 …

This couple was one of the two last clients whose house this lady cleaned (once every other week) into her 70s when her kids were financially successful, she was driving a nice vehicle, and she didn't really need the money anymore.

I know a couple who had a housekeeper whom they treated almost as family. If you were observing and didn't know better, it would've looked like someone went visit a friend and slowly started taking out cleaning supplies and eventually started cleaning while the convo tapered off.

If you are the kind of employer or customer who treats the people doing your bidding like human beings, like social equals (or better), then universal basic income won't cost you much if anything at all.

If you are the kind of employer or customer - and universal basic income will help us blur the distinction between employers and customers - who currently relies heavily degradation and intimidation to get people to do your bidding, you will pay a big cost (or quickly adapt.)

That rent is the difference between what you must do now to get people to do your bidding and whatever additional measures you will have to take to get people to do your bidding once everyone has unconditional access to enough money to avoid homelessness and hunger.

The cost of universal basic income is not the total quantity of dollars spent on UBI payments (nor is it any "net transfer.") The cost of universal basic income is the rent that anyone and everyone currently collects off of other people's lack of consenting power.https://twitter.com/JamesRobichaux/status/1203488224942755840 …

Our entire democracy is a muddled mess. We desperately need voting reforms like ranked-choice voting, automatic voter registration, open primaries, election holidays, and Democracy Dollars to wash out the influence of lobbyists. As for Iowa, these caucuses are just plain weird.

"America used to be a beacon of freedom, liberty and anti-corruption efforts," says Nataliya Gumenyuk, a Ukrainian journalist who grew up admiring the U.S. "Now a lot of Ukrainians feel like ... we are by ourselves."https://trib.al/nKkfPkj

In the meantime, though, riddle me this... if trucking is automated and millions of jobs are lost, and if we wanted to pay a basic income to *only* those who lost their jobs due to the automation, why would we need to collect ANY *additional* taxes at all to do it?

the silver lining to this tub of sausage is that even more Americans are now aware of how grotesque and irredeemably stupid the sausage-making process is, building the pressure to make needed systemic changes.

I am sorry to again be "that guy," but we should know that the die was cast a long time ago. Many previously politically disengaged Yang Gang went to participate in the sausage-making process and learned how gross the process inherently is.

This matches my own interactions with Bernie supporters so far. How do they not understand that if he's the nominee they're alienating a large supporting base? It's truly beyond idiotic.https://twitter.com/adntigger/status/1222020410872684547 …

And that is why I find it so pathetic when Job Guarantee advocates say, "employers will just cut wages by the basic income amount." Well? So what? Fine. A pay raise isn't the point of UBI. Having the power to consent in the relationship in the first place is.

We can also afford to extrajudicially kill a significant percentage of the population, too. Affordability tells us nothing about ethics, morality, or justification.https://twitter.com/AlexHowlettUBI/status/1224729686472830977 …
