When unregulated, it misallocates resources and defeats the aspirational ideal of equality of opportunity
Thanks for your efforts, sir

So, the UBI experiment in Finland, for all its flaws, still worked.
Employment, income and most importantly mental health all improved.

It's funny how I should be happy with the final results of Finland’s basic income experiment, but I'm angry. Basic income works. Over and over again, it works. Across so many dimensions important to human existence, IT WORKS. And yet, it's still a debate instead of a reality.
My partner has recently signed up for the wage subsidy since her self employment income is falling off a cliff.
This morning I suggested we go kiwifruit picking. Her response: why would I do that when I have a wage subsidy to stay home?

@ all those saying the #FreedomDividend is just a cover for cutting the social safety net. It is a reinforcement of the economic floorboards under the feet of every last one of us! #Yang2020 #MATH #YangGang #YangStory #WhyUBI

This is a powerful story from an everyday Yang supporter on #WhyUBI - having witnessed decline of Flint, MI from 1982 through 2000, and the growth of wealth and income ≠ in Seattle in the 21st century. #Nebraska #YangGang #MyYangStory #UBI #NebraskansforYang #Yang2020

Why are Chris Matthews and MSNBC trying to silence Andrew Yang? Are they using priviledge to dismiss Yang along with the "rent is too dam high" guy? Yang 'Freedom Dividend' Plan | MSNBC https://t.co/VRRHzlVlys via @YouTube #Yanggang #WomenforYang #UBI #WhyUBI #therentistoodamhigh

I’ve been healing from my surgery and have been hopeful for the future.
This morning, I got laid off. Unexpectedly.
I have about 3k in medical bills coming (and a mortgage, etc).
It’s times like these I really wish I could survive on just doing my show.
Underemployment is not only a US phenomenon. There is a glut of engineers in India massively underemployed and bogged down with student debt. We're not talking farmers or truck drivers, they're engineers with college degrees that are unemployable right now. #WhyUBI
