|

We need to protect our poor residents especially those who risked their lives crossing our border with a guaranteed basic income – a government-financed unconditional cash allowance for poor people. Economic insecurity is a national epidemic in need of a government solution.
Aren’t we spending too much on huge tax breaks for wealthy companies? Would the money be better invested in safety net programs like health care, early childhood education, daycare and job training? And when did the rich stop getting high or drunk, and buying luxuries they don’t need? Isn’t investing directly in people’s welfare, so they can help themselves, a better bet than hoping corporate welfare benefits will trickle down to the poor?
If the government can support wealthy corporations with cash, it can support poor people with a basic income. Some say the poor don’t deserve it – as if Amazon “deserves” a billion-dollar tax break. But merit has nothing to do with why we should support the poor. It’s really an investment in protecting our democracy.

Oh look, the Troll was sad he wasn't getting enough attention so he put up another fake post pretending to be someone he's not.
Yawn. |

Not a Troll. Its Joseph Stalin, Karl Marx and Fidel Castro, publicizing their success with Socialism. |

Agreed, let's stop these handouts to farmers that can't sell their soybeans to China, get rid of Socail Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. |

The thing that bothers me about Indivisible more than anything is that they create divisiveness. They say they want unity and to better things. The minute they don’t get their way they start name calling, saying people are racist, etc... Ever since last year Indivisible people have been saying Dan, Glenn and Jay are racist because they said no to the CRC. Anyone who knows them knows that is not true. But that is the way Indivisible works. Look at ApC today calling Regan a racist.
The CRC and Indivisible folks since being told no have spent a ton of energy complaining, bashing our town and yet have done nothing to develop the CRC or volunteer. Almost a year later and nothing has happened except their continued name calling and getting people in town angry at them. Newsflash calling people racist, demeaning the town where people live and not volunteering is not going to lead to you being welcomed. |

Guaranteed income for those who risked their lives crossing our border. Yet take away Farm assistance, Social security and Medicare from those of the Generation who risked their lives defending this country in Wars so Idiots today have the freedom to advocate protecting the Border invaders. |
