Ya he was cool. Maybe next time.

There was a msinstream media blackout on Yang, plus fake polls and campaigning isn't cheap. 

yang was sterile in debates and would have been eaten alive in these coming months (probably would have made the DNC look bad too). UBI was retarded, people like me would blow taxpayer money on drugs. he's a cool guy and means well, and i'm glad he brought more attention to the automation market. but yeah, there was no way he could tow the party-line, it was obvious after the first democratic debate

and before anyone says to me that the stations treated him unfairly and gave him less speaking time during the debates...everyone up on that stage who has any sense of how to run a crowd knows to seize the attention with interjections, rebuttals, etc. moderation rules are merely something you get judged by how you react, when the moderator starts to interrupt you. if you want someone who's projecting niceties to be running up against trump, you might be missing your med doses

 The expression is to TOE the line or toe the party line not tow

TRYP I've got to say: why don't you look things up if unsure. Very easy to do on the Internet.:)

As for UBI, if you 'blow it on contraband', that's your problem not mine, isn't it?:)

it kind of is, when you're paying for it

maybe you not specifically. amazon and google and facebook (whoever is determined). someone else. i wasn't jubilant about that kind of economic planning

His UBI policy made zero fiscal sense and other than an increase in happiness, which is arguable, everywhere its tried has caused the job market to suffer and there's no data suggesting a correlation with GDP growth as he often states - Finland is an example of this. It would cost $4 trillion a year if it was only applied to people in poverty; that is more than 20% of GDP and something like 80% of the U.S. total tax revenue. Yangs proposals on his website says it's for ANYONE over 18, which would cost $30.4 trillion a year at the least - that's more than what the entire stock market is worth. 

Now add on to that the fact he wants the Govt to pour more investment into pharmaceuticals while also regulating price, wants to immediately reduce student loan payments (not only will the govt have to pay for this but it also messes heavily with money supply), and building a zero-emission economy by 2030 which again would take govt investment. 

It's ironic that he's all about 'MATH'

But... but... but what about getting that motherfucking bag?
