Your ambition is already capped by virtue of you being a black male in America:dwillhuh:
Your argument ignores fundamental aspects of racism and classism, and ironically ends up being a right wing talking point.
Got damn, and people actually dapped this. Got damn you're weak. African immigrants come here dirt poor and create good wealth within a decade and then you got shytstain nikkas like this just wanting somebody to change their diaper and give them back their nu-nu. FOH.

Yes, loser. That's right. I already see where you're going with this. You're about to call me a CAC or a c00n and deflect because you have no real response. Nobody able bodied or minded should be starving in this country. Learn a trade. Get a CDL. shyt, do something. fukking weak ass, loser ass mentality.
I’m very well off cracker (because you have to be one)...have you ever read my posts I’m not bullshytting?

But I have to thank my black parents and grandparents who educated me and gave me a leg up.

Not everyone has that and to not look out for them is evil at best.

I really wish white boys like you would log off and go. You have no idea what systemic oppression looks like nor do you care so you really shouldn’t be a part of these discussions. Ignored and for the record go fukk yourself.

the idea of paying rent needs to go too breh.

It's literally one of the biggest problems this crisis has magnified

I've seen you say this a couple of times. I actually dont understand what you propose instead.

So, if you own a home/property/apartment, and you lease it out to someone, what are you suppose to do if you arent 'renting' it to someone? How do you as an owner make money on it?

that's been the main argument depending on which spectrum of politics you side and most importantly what's possible

if it were up to me, people wouldn't have to even think about paying if not paying much for healthcare, housing and utilities in times of crisis

but because that's not the case it can be seen as throwing money to the wind, despite the fact without any funds, people will starve, which the nine times out of ten won't because they have funds to purchase and cover for what they can.




I’m not as well versed in UBI, but how would this work in a free market? If $1000 is given to every American, what’s stopping rent, gas & food increases that will basically nullify said UBI?

Naaaahh, I don't want my financial potential to be limited by UBI. Everyone with no ambition gets government assistance anyway. There's your UBI.:yeshrug:
The problem with this statement is that it's the people in the middle who barely make enough to get by but aren't broke enough to qualify for government assistance who are suffering the most.

The middle class would greatly benefit from a UBI and it would go a long way in stimulating economic growth.

My major issue with UBI is it's an economic booster attempt masquerading as a social service.

It's not a solution to poverty and you can provide subsidies that accomplish the same thing.

They want you to spend money to keep the economy going. But at some point, this will strain the system, so what next after that?
