    UBI in replacement of welfare makes sense

    It's just a loose outline

    Non-binding resolution. You obviously haven't read it.

    Whether we have Medicare For All or not we’re going to spend 30 something trillion on healthcare in that time period. Acting like it’s a new cost is disingenuous and it’s not worth arguing with you.

    Acting like money spent by private businesses and individuals is no different than money spent by the government is disingenuous and not worth arguing about.

    You have to realize that boomers have this level of entitlement that they're not the ones responsible for anything bad, they don't want to actually pay for anything, and they think not addressing a problem means that it doesn't exist. God forbid if you bring any of this up. They were handed the world on a silver platter and shit all over it. Now they expect their children and grandchildren to pay the bill.

    It's hilarious to see a generation of people who borrowed trillions for stealth jets, pointless wars, and tax cuts for decades tell their children and grandchildren "we simply can't afford this"

    Amazing all the things you claim to know that millions of people think and feel and yet you can’t tell me who I voted for.

    Do you ever stop to consider that maybe what you feel you “know” might really be bullshit?

    Have you ever stopped to consider that maybe the reason why you dodge so many questions is because you know you’re a lightweight and a dumb fuck and that you’ll do nothing but embarrass yourself if you try to have an intelligent exchange?

    This is true. But it does give millennials a chance to go down as the best so I’m not mad.

    First of all you have no fucking clue what generation I’m part of and if you were to make me king I’d cut the Federal government back to the size it was back 1920s but for the military

    So you don’t know shit about me or what I think, or how I feel about Federal spending, you’re just an ignorant dipshit running your mouth

    The platform you are enjoying was built by boomers. Like everything cool. Boomers fought for civil rights and gay rights.

    Take your racist homophobic rants elsewhere kids.

    Boomers left you such a great world you have to invent shit to be outraged about

    Fuck off. We own this bitch

    You’re right, having a for profit industry running healthcare is worse.

    How bad you think the government is not a reflection of government but of the people in government and those that elected them. Baby boomers.
