Tucker made some valid points and is damn good at his job. You never know with these politicians, but I have always liked Yang. He is a smart, level headed guy that seems like a genuinely solid person.

I read Yang's book, big fan now. Despite being an Ivy Leaguer who started at a Manhattan law firm, he spent years launching startups and relocating talented graduates to disaffected cities and regions across the country.RoadDawg55 said:Tucker made some valid points and is damn good at his job.

He fully appreciates the danger of intellectual and economic capital being consolidated in a few coastal cities, and the near third world conditions some parts of "flyover country" live in. He also recognizes that AI is going to be magnitudes more devastating than globalization was to these communities, and is honest about the ineffectiveness of the liberal "retraining" band-aids that we often hear parrotted from the left. Donald gave cheap lip service to these Americans, Yang was as ground level as it gets.

Agreed, Yang is leagues above the corporate Dems.GreenRiverGatorz said:

I probably would have voted for Yang had he been on the ballot. Sharp dude.

I don’t know enough about him but he seems like a normal, level headed, sharp dude. He stood out compared to the rest of the corrupt dummies at the early debates.PostGameOrangeSlices said:I probably would have voted for Yang had he been on the ballot. Sharp dude.

Yang at least acknowledges globalization, like liberals used to 15 years ago. Then they went full blown fag.
I think the AI takeover is scare tactics, but what do I know. At least he has a plan if it happens. He didn't cave into the SJW mob (too much) like most of them did. He gets there are people in Indiana and Montana whose parents made 80k in today's money who are struggling. Trump did to a small degree, but being a Republican, he gave in to the one percent a lot. -
Yang’s parents being immigrants is a good selling point for him. He recognizes the opportunity in America and his message in race and real life issues is better than a typical candidate.
I ordered his book but it never came. I feel he’s not corrupt enough and will be too much of an outsider to ever be a real candidate, but a seemingly normal, intelligent, friendly guy that isn’t too far left is needed. There are some levels of narcissism to even want to be president but Yang is about as low on the list as I’ve ever seen in politics.
I agree with Billy about the AI stuff probably being overblown, but I don’t hate his Universal Basic Income. $1,000 is enough to live and for others it can jumpstart a possible business. I’m sure there are flaws with it, but it all sounds pretty good to me.
