    He is too sensible. He doesn't have a chinaman's chance.

    Thanks for the spelling lesson CO2. BTW guess you are not keeping up with current events Paul can't spell anything right now cause he currently has assumed roomed temperature, in other words he is currently dead.

    hmm, not sure about this UBI. Think too many people would drop out and be content with that allowance from BB. But i'm not sure. Maybe the labor market would then tighten up and wages would boost up, but then prices would have to follow....my hunch is it would be a disaster, but success would be fantastic

    SpaceX's Elon Musk Endorses Democratic Presidential Candidate Andrew Yang

    Musk's support for Yang is apparently quite serious. In another Saturday tweet, Musk said that universal basic income, a key part of Yang's platform, is "obviously needed."

    I just cant wrap my head around UBI. I stress the fuck out about not working hard-enough. Maybe there is something wrong with me.

    There are days I just go in my garage to work on things to make my hands sore. I can't fathom having to rely on the government to pay me money.

    I thought Musk had more sense than that.

    I have always worked for one reason. If I didn't I wouldn't have any money. I hate working for somebody else but I have worked my ass off for up to 18 hours a day in my own business. If I had ever struck it really rich I would be a lot better golfer and guitar player and caught a lot more fish. The old saying that my worst day of fishing was better than my best day of work is true.

    i dont think i favor UBI either.

    i do like candidates who are not "performing".

    hillary was so fake she couldnt laugh at anything, or make a facial expression, that didnt seem like an actor on a stage playing a politician. like i remember her face when they dropped the ballons from the roof at her convention. her face made me want to kill her.

    and all the dems are like this, except yang. yang is a normal person. he ist tryin to generate laugh lines or "oh snap he told that bitch" burns

    When she was in South Carolina with a bunch of grammaws she faked a bad southern accent. I heard that she was going to Lafayette on her campaign tour. I wonder if she tried to fake a cajun accent.

    If he campaigns on creating a UBI he is doomed to lose.
