We need universal basic income. It will function as a cushion for people so that losing a job or not being able to find one doesn't mean zero income, and having basic income will also better enable finding or even creating a new job.
Also, AI is trained on all our work. We should all get our share.

I'm really impressed with how Rashida Tlaib improved her BOOST proposal from the last time she introduced it. Last time it had a phaseout, meaning it required means testing. This time, she dropped the means testing and used a surtax to better accomplish her goal of avoiding boosting those over $150k
Rep. Rashida Tlaib as part of her Economic Dignity for All agenda has introduced a new version of her BOOST Act which is now a Universal Basic Income of $250/mo paired with a new 2.5% tax on incomes over $30k to function as a phaseout. That means everyone under $150k would see a net boost in income.

Time to move past the neverending trial stage. Yes, basic income reduces homelessness.
An Oregon pilot program giving cash to homeless youths sees a staggering reduction in homelessness. The program gave participants $1,000 cash payments each month for two years, and at the end of the project's first phase, 91% of participants reported being in stable housing.

As part of blocking Nixon's guaranteed income bill from reaching the Senate floor, the chair of the Senate Finance Committee said, "Who will iron my shirts?"
It would have dropped poverty by 60%.

I sometimes feel like they don’t want to end poverty or reduce inequality because they believe they’re entitled to a class of people they can prey upon

You can’t make this up:
A 155mm artillery shell prematurely detonated during a Marine Corps demo — raining shrapnel onto cops guarding VP JD Vance.
Trump’s team mocked Newsom for closing I-5 “for no reason.”
Turns out Newsom’s safety call may have just saved lives.
Competence vs chaos.

Children are dying because Trump gutted USAID and cut lifesaving foreign aid — even though it took up less than 1% of the U.S. budget.
Meanwhile, he's preparing to dole out $40 billion to prop up Argentina's failing economy, all to help out his authoritarian pal.
