Title: “Democracy Dollars”
Post by: nddons on May 01, 2019, 10:20:20 AM
I don’t think this is The Onion:

WASHINGTON (AP) — Democratic presidential candidate Kirsten Gillibrand has announced a plan to give every voter up to $600 in vouchers to donate to a spate of federal candidates.

Andrew Yang wants to give everyone $1000 a month basic income.  To prove that this is a good thing, he's going to do an experiment and give one Iowan $1000 a month and see how it impacts their life.  It's a "freedom dividend."  Oh yeah, that's a valid experiment.

There are probably tons of people who would quit any attempt at work if they got a free $1000 a month. Sounds really great for the economy doesn't it.

“Give.”

As if the source of this largesse is theirs to distribute at will.

My daily prayer is that people will wake up to the globalist elites fooling them and enriching themselves, and maintaining their power and wealth by appearing to be “generous” and “compassionate.” Ironically, the left’s policies invariably destroy productivity.

Quote
At the same time, the elite classes must deal with a potential revolution from the Right, driven by what Christophe Guilluy describes as “the great escape” of the working class from the economic system embraced by the gentrified Left. But whether the next revolution comes from the Right or the Left, our elites, like their eighteenth century counterparts, could belatedly awaken to find themselves faced with an existential threat. If this is indeed what comes to pass, it will largely be due to the folly of their own lack of respect for the values and the system responsible for creating their wealth in the first place.

I'm writing in Stacey Abrams for President and Oprah as her running mate.

Absolutely.  Keep this Democrat freak show up until November 2020 and President Trump will be forced out of office on January 20, 2025.
