What are some other ways to implement it?

:what:

And if the right does it?
If the right does it, we(or rather I) expect it to be generous and to come with cuts and/or the abolishment of other social safety nets freeing up trillions annually. If we can get SS/medicare abolished we might be able to even lower taxes on the middle class while ensuring basic income for every single American.

The left tends to prefer the lasagna route, just layering policies on top of each other:yeshrug:

I guess we could pay for it that way, but I not in favoring of abolishing Medicare or SS under any circumstances, so that is a non starter for me.

Depends who implements it...if the left does, i have no idea... simply taxing the rich wont work. Every cent from Bezos(as someone mentioned) wouldnt cover it.

"If the left does" :mjlol:

Oh what, Republicans were going to do UBI ? They had some sort of plan ? :mjlol:

They wouldn't even give people two stimulus checks:mjlol:
