I was once talking with one of my classmates and he said that in the future, there will be universal basic income implemented by entire world. I was not convinced at that time and thought he is just being stupid but given the layoffs happening and massive amount of unemployment, I am thinking about this possibility. What do you say?

    20hrs is already over the limit for most states. even in lower cost states 20hrs is way over, as red states likely arnt expanding medicaid to raise the max income for it. i know someone that works only 18hrs/week to stay on medicaid/ Denti-caid, actually less because lunch isnt counted as pay.

    i think it should be referred to ACA, obamacare is coined by conservative media to make it a boogeyman so republicans will also vote against it. i dont think people got jealous, schumer+republicans ended the shutdown it already made millions drop out of thier aca plans because thier premiums doubled or quadrupled in cost.
