ChatGPT had this to say: Funding Universal Basic Income



HOw can the United States generate funding for a universal basic income?

There are a few different ways that the United States could generate funding for a universal basic income (UBI) program. Some potential options include:

Taxes: The government could fund a UBI program through taxes on income, wealth, or consumption.

Government spending: The government could redirect existing spending on social welfare programs towards a UBI program.

Government borrowing: The government could fund a UBI program by borrowing money, either by issuing bonds or by increasing the national debt.

Private donations: Private individuals or organizations could donate money to support a UBI program.

Public-private partnerships: The government could partner with private companies or organizations to fund a UBI program.

It is worth noting that implementing a UBI program would likely involve trade-offs and difficult policy decisions. For example, increasing taxes or government borrowing could have unintended economic consequences, and redirecting existing government spending away from other programs could be politically controversial

No one.. aaaand...we can vote through the first week of December too. Saturday is a good day and Warnock did his homework to get people out. I'm in GA.. but I mailed my vote. It's all silly...he immediately sued the state right after the runoff was announced. Shenanigans always. Runoffs were even based on a racist practice to limit votes for a black candidate...
