TBF the government already has the money, they just choose to spend it in shittier ways....not that a living wage is great way either.

If we really are going to start giving out free money for nothing, I'm quitting my job.

How about giving men a big raise and making all women stay home. Good old days!!
All men teachers would solve many issues.
Just think of the sammich's

If we took all of their wealth it would almost cover 1 week's worth of payments

If this is coming out of my income taxes, I won’t be earning income much longer. Easier to sit and get paid.

If politicians would stop selling subsidies to the rich and powerful in return for bribes (such as those disguised as speaking fees and book deals), average citizens would have a good standard of living.

In 1968, I worked a summer job alongside a young black unskilled factory worker. That young man supported a home, two cars, two kids and a stay-at-home wife. Every pay period that young man bought a $25 US Saving Bond for his kids' education fund.

We have been victimized for the benefit of corporate overlords ruled by corrupt boards of directors.

It’s time for people to get a strong work ethic and value education with a meaningful degree that pays well.

If we took every penny of every US billionaire's wealth (not income, wealth), it would cover US government spending for about 7-8 months.

Then where will you go to get the next batch of money, because they won't have any left?
