It was always clear to me what the effects of UBI were. It boggles my mind how some people have a hard time grasping why it's bad.
Let's consider a hypothetical couple who are worth $50 million. They have a few young children. Suppose these parents let their kids know from a young age, that they never needed to work a day in their lives; they would receive a stipend to live on. Would you consider them good parents? And if so you thought, "No," then before going on, ask yourself why? Be specific in your mind about what the actual *downside* would be, to letting your kids know they never needed to work a day in their lives. Then consider: That approach is what the people running the government, justified by their academic priests, are trying to implement with UBI.

I'm especially curious about the people who want to protect children from drag queens but not from bombs.

All rights are property rights. “We believe that respect for individual rights is the essential precondition for a free and prosperous world.” (LP platform) This is essentially a property rights statement, with the understanding that our most basic and unseverable property is our body/mind.

For the sake of America, Ukraine, Russia, and the world — we need immediate diplomacy, not reckless commitments to prolong the war in Ukraine forever. That's why, in the Maine Senate today, I called out the propaganda of the corporate media and the Washington war machine.

If the state really wanted to protect innocent children, it would stop bombing foreign countries rather than banning firearms.

One quarter of Russian soldiers and one half of Ukrainian soldiers were conscripted. They are slaves. Tens of thousands of men on both sides have evaded the draft or openly refused to serve. Large majorities of civilians in both countries oppose the war. I stand with them.

Freedom ultimately means the right of other people to do things that you do not approve of.

If you are anti secession you are pro imperialism. There is no way around that.

She was suspended 38 times for not wearing a mask. She never backed down. The school district have now dropped the mask mandate!!! If an 8 year can make changes, so can you. Bravo Fiona ❤️ lifesitenews.com/news/florid…

Doesn't matter what the CDC says. You should still wash your hands even if you got the vaccine.

I have this really strange policy, almost impossible to understand, really, whereby people who call me a Nazi don't get to come on my show. teapawt.net/LPDanielHayes/status/8…
