RE: Is Basic Income Becoming an "Inevitable" Part of the Future?

in Silver Bloggerslast month (edited)

After reading this article, what comes to mind is the fact that Jesse Watters of Fox News is always running his mouth about how he feels that homeless people have failed in life. This man is so disconnected from reality that it is not even funny. He spends more time holding interviews on Fox News with alleged victims of alien abductions than he does actually investigating the causes of homelessness. Did you know that there are more than a half million people that are homeless in the United States?

Jesse Watters probably doesn't even know that fact. I've looked into his background, and he has grown up around money and has never encounterd a misfortune in his life. Therefore, he doesn't even have the faintest idea what it is like to struggle financially. He doesn't even realize that there are even people from his socioeconomic structure that end up homeless inasmuch as their abusive parents have disinherited them. This Jesse Watters gets my blood coagulating. He's not helping the situation with the growing disparity between haves and have-nots in the United States.

Universal Basic Income would alleviate the problem with homelessness in the United States, but the Federal government would still have to figure out where the funds would come from to make this benefit happen. I don't think that it's right for mega-churches to be allowed to get away without paying any taxes.

By the way, you wrote an exceptional article. Keep up the good work.😊
