Yang is by far the smartest and most rational of the Dem Field; not a high bar, but the contrast will show in a debate. Collectivist Ideology nws.

His vision is toward the future; there is no doubt that things are going to change in ways that traditional (merit-based) economic models will become obsolete, and likely unworkable. Even if there are a hundred million unemployable people, their needs must be addressed, lest a meltdown and civil war result.

Yang is the future of the Dem Party...if they have a future. Egalitarianism always will have moral appeal; as compassion for the weak is a Religious (Christianity at our fore) core principle. And QUALIFIED MERCY (Government Subsidization) will and must be a part of any Government Subsidization mechanism. Once high-tech wipes out the easy jobs, the whole dynamic changes; there will be a LOT of unemployable people. Yang's encouragement toward Civic work, is both rational and moral.

If Humanity is able to jump this coming societal hurdle, it will be through a synthesis of now competing polar Economic/Moral Paradigms. The Fermi Paradox/"Great Filter" remains indifferent; the effect therein is not.

The coming years will be a fascinating and pivotal scenario.

Agreed. Again, I’m not advocating for his stances, but they’re somewhat sensible and not just aimed at a money grab or wealth transfer. One thing that people ignore when he says UBi and 1k a month... rich people get that 1k too. Now they may be getting taxed at a higher rate as well but it’s an even distribution.

I pay well over $1k a month in taxes between fed, SS and Medicare. They can make that $1800 a month and give me $1k back and 1k for my stay at home mother wife and I’d come out ahead on the year.

Again... NOT voting for him, just showing that it’s more rational than his opponents.
