Running for Georgia CD-11

[Beau Cannon - GA CD11 @BCannon4GA]

Friends, after many serious conversations and deep contemplation, I have decided to step out of the GA-11 primary. I believe that a unified fight is the best option for the district. That is why I am joining and endorsing @VoteDaza2022 for the primary. #strongertogether

[Beau Cannon - GA CD11 @BCannon4GA]

@Currying_Favor @Carolyn4GA7 @HeatherK_GA @Marcus4Georgia @Holly_4Congress I am actually no longer running. You can add @VoteDaza2022 in my place as I will be helping his campaign for CD-11

@martinx_paul @AliKaung @CLEANFISH @WholeWashington @RedBeretsM4All @DNC Im not running as a corporate Democrat. I'm running as a Democrat because if I run as anything else, I won't be taken seriously because of the two party strangle hold and FPP voting system. Im running to try and fix the country I served, not to make money or make friends

[Beau Cannon - GA CD11 @BCannon4GA]

@martinx_paul @AliKaung @CLEANFISH @WholeWashington @RedBeretsM4All @DNC Youre making general assumptions about someone based on them running as a party in a state that is "either you're red or you're blue or your nothing". I'm a progressive liberal who has worked in aviation and never once wavered on my beliefs in 15 years.

@martinx_paul @AliKaung @CLEANFISH @WholeWashington @RedBeretsM4All @DNC You're making assumptions of my character and values off of a single tweet without looking back at the actually first interaction between he and I. I have been open about supporting M4A since I announced I was running. Your initial tweet was made as a bad faith attack

[Beau Cannon - GA CD11 @BCannon4GA]

@martinx_paul @AliKaung @CLEANFISH @WholeWashington @RedBeretsM4All @DNC So what? I was suppose to blindly endorse an organization I knew nothing about? Candidates aren't allowed to research and vet movements and organizations for validity first? And that makes them frauds and corrupt?

[Beau Cannon - GA CD11 @BCannon4GA]

@AliKaung @WholeWashington @RedBeretsM4All After researching and looking into them more, I would be happy to endorse @WholeWashington

@mzindyg007 Come on out if you're in the area. Bliss is one of their signature line and a favorite of many. I personally like some of the more sour meads like Grabthars Hammer. And Mints of Persia mixes well with pretty much everything

Wanna talk my policies?

I've stated before that I am for UBI. This study showed how positive it is in small scale. I believe it is time to try it on a larger scale on a district level or even state level to then be enacted on a country level.

@UndeadOrlan @PGewgle @muadhrezi A lot of that waste is because schools will take lunches from children whose parents haven't paid and throw the food in the garbage in front of everyone. It's not a black and white waste issue.

[Beau Cannon - GA CD11 @BCannon4GA]

@UndeadOrlan @PGewgle @muadhrezi Getting the same minimum wage as adults at $15 or higher an hour would allow them to help take care of themselves. I specifically said teenagers who were kicked out, not lost their parents. Most teenagers who are kicked out don't end up in the system. They end up in halfway homes

@UndeadOrlan @PGewgle @muadhrezi https://t.co/6kcNgbB6ub

This article right here proves that UBI does indeed allow people to make better financial choices and the money is spent overwhelmingly on food and cleaning supplies. These studies prove that UBI is viable and effective over and over.

[Beau Cannon - GA CD11 @BCannon4GA]

@UndeadOrlan @PGewgle @muadhrezi What about those individuals who are kicked out of their homes by their parents at 15 or 16? So far you have said that it's on parents to take care of their children and not the government. Would you still be ok with the lower wages and refusal of UBI in that situation?

[Beau Cannon - GA CD11 @BCannon4GA]

@UndeadOrlan @PGewgle @muadhrezi The benefit to society would be that people would be able to make better financial choices. That people would be able to buy groceries and necessities without stigmatized programs. It would lift most families out of poverty and almost all children.

[Beau Cannon - GA CD11 @BCannon4GA]

@UndeadOrlan @PGewgle @muadhrezi I see school lunches as being part of the educational system and ensuring that children are able to thrive. Not as a government vs parents feeding children. There will always be adults who don't do right by their children. Why punish the children for the sins of their parents?

[Beau Cannon - GA CD11 @BCannon4GA]

@UndeadOrlan @PGewgle @muadhrezi In a perfect world, they would. But the world isn't perfect. School lunches isn't something I would ever want to cut because hunger for children is a distraction. Ensuring our future generation is educated to the highest quality is a platform I'm firm on

[Beau Cannon - GA CD11 @BCannon4GA]

@UndeadOrlan @PGewgle @muadhrezi I believe that it could replace some programs if it's at the right amount. X amount per adult and Y amount per child for example. I know that there are several programs people feel embarrassed or bad about being on. And a UBI could eliminate the stigma and need for some programs.

[Beau Cannon - GA CD11 @BCannon4GA]

@UndeadOrlan @PGewgle @muadhrezi What would be your thoughts on which safety nets to eliminate or cut? I'm not opposed to overhauling things to make more sense and serve people better.
