That takes the U out of UBI. You know....Universal. meaning everything without exception. The whole point is that part of the reason people commit crimes is they don't have the resources they need in the first place. Give them the resources, and crime goes down.Fair enough. Criminal background check first.
Make UBI more expensive than it has to be while simultaneously making it less effective at reducing crime and poverty? Why, it's BRILLIANT!Fair enough. Criminal background check first.
Trump's proposals add far more to the debt/deficit than Harris' do. His tariffs will also cause absolutely massive inflation.Dont worry. Kamala will work hard to make America illegal again. As far as inflation, once she is done handing out UBI payments to everyone who would rather not work but smoke weed and cause crime, you will see continued upward pressures on prices.
And dont forget, it was Old Man Biden with his stupid 100% tariff on Chinese EV's recently to protect lazy union workers that will keep us from buying affordable $15,000 cars. Nope! We have to pay American prices - $30k+ for bare transportation.
So yeah, its the dems alright.
This is what America is supposed to be about..free markets and competition. Also American car companies get bailouts and freebies from Government.
Give me a $15,000 Chinese SUV.
You have a vastly oversimplified concept of what a free market economy is. NO, and I mean NO, economist and/or any country operating a free market economy allows foreign countries to dump goods on them below their cost. The USA never has done so since we became such a proponent of free trade after WWII. (Which adoption, BTW, any responsible economist with point out to you was a major factor in the USA's economy becoming so strong for so long. Both Republican and Democratic administrations have reacted rather consistently against such dumping (I'm excluding the four year under Trumpism because neither rational thought or logic had any bearing on what he did for the most part).This is what America is supposed to be about..free markets and competition. Also American car companies get bailouts and freebies from Government.

I wonder what your MAGAt brethren would think about you not buying American when that's exactly what they whine about the liberals not doing. Your party is an America First racist fascist nationalist isolationist in-bred regressive throwback anachronism, disguising itself as "the true patriots of America". That shtick is stuck in reverse desiring to force everyone else back to a bygone era, yet you are all enjoying the many social safety net programs that the gov't has provided especially so for the conservative leaning poverty stricken states of America while denouncing it all as a communist socialist plot to destroy America.
You are attempting to have things both ways in an effort to elevate a convicted felon and adulterer to the highest office of the land. Care to 'splain that in a way that makes actual factual sense? Because not a single Republican that I ever had a discussion with could talk their way around that phenomenon. Give it a try why don't 'cha. it might clear some things up for you.
