Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) signaled that she is open to a universal basic income an idea that has been championed by fellow presidential contender Andrew Yang (D).
Warren expressed her willingness to consider a UBI, which quite literally amounts to the government handing individuals and families a basic income per month regardless of employment or income status, in a Washington Post survey that asked, Should the federal government pay a universal basic income to every American adult?

Why doesn’t she promise a perfect husband for every spinster, and a perfect wife for every bachelor while she’s at it?
It’s no less ludicrous than what she’s promising now!

Stupid Question I know, but will this income be subject to the Income Tax?

To: pburgh01
Don’t fall for Obama’s spin. He is just as big a Leftist as all the rest of them. He’s just hoping to help them fool enough of the electorate one more time.
In a sense we are lucky that he’s so damned lazy and addicted to being the subject of idolatry, or we WOULD already be living under socialism.

Took the Soviet Union 70 years. My fear is that with the staggering, unprecedented wealth of this country the hollowing out process could take far, far longer than that.

the government handing individuals and families a basic income per month Interesting. Where, pray tell, is "government" going to get the funds to hand out a "basic income"?

No Republican will ever win at those levels again with the current electorates increasing leftism and diversity. Warren could very well win (as could any Democrat). Well be lucky to squeak through the electoral college a time or two more. Then the country will demand, and get, the electoral college eliminated.
You and I are in total agreement. All demographic tides are surging against us. In around a decade I expect we'll finally succumb.

Communists murdered John F Kennedy. Communists are trying to impeach Donald Trump.
Funny how it works that way.

The democrats have already obtained....basic income. It’s called EARNED INCOME CREDIT... in which the so called “working poor” get a check that is NOT a refund on their withheld income taxes... but is a STIPEND... a CREDIT, that is US Taxpayers money paid to the them, for “meeting the criteria” set by the Socialists.
So, is Warren going to support withholding of INCOME tax on all this “Universal Income” payments? Not on your life!

So figure Medicare for All-Basic Income-Reperations-Green New Deal-Cash for electonic cars etc.
Democrat Fascist Party spending promises are now up to $67 trillion over 10 years. Figure $6.7 trillion on top of the $4.45 trillion the Federal Government currently spends annually.
Their “tax the wealthy” scheme, at the most optimistic estimate, nets them $63.5 billion annually.
That is not even enough to close the current Federal Budget deficit.
So Voters, ask yourself this? Where they going to get the other $7 trillion?
The fact is there is NO way for the Democrats to do this unless they completely re-structure current tax code and impose a tax rate of 55-60% on everyone. It might not be a direct tax, instead it might be something like a national sales tax, but they WILL have to take from all of you to fund this nonsense.
