As Congress weighs another relief package amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic which has many small businesses closed until stay-at-home orders are lifted, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) floated out the possibility of a minimum guaranteed income for workers.
Pelosi said on “MSNBC Live” a minimum guaranteed income is “perhaps” now “worthy” of getting looked at being added into the next funding package.
“[A]s we go forward, let’s see what works,” Pelosi outlined. “What is operational, and what needs other attention? Others have suggested a minimum … guaranteed income for people. Is that worthy of attention now?

This depopulation ploy, aka COVID-19, in use by our liberal Democrats, militant greenies and elite ice cream fanatics is hanging by only a bit of dental floss. While strong enough for it's purpose of flossing teeth or cutting wedding cakes, you cannot tat lace with it. But you CAN twist it and turn it and bend it and stretch it quite well enough to be tied to the shiny object so loved by the neverTrumpers and other mental defectives.

At some point in the future, when just about everything is automated, we will have to go that route. We are nowhere near that point.
Thus far, its been a failure everywhere its been tried. It costs to much snd its a disincentive to lower wage tax payers to work. And a disincentive for higher wage workers to work any harder.

Hopefully, the democrats, economic wizards that they are, will go in to these businesses that are hurt by the big increase in their labor costs, and professionally advise them how they can make it work for them.

Come to the Plantation, where everyone gets a paycheck. Then vote yourselves annual raises by voting for the Democratic Party, which promises never to be outbid by our stingy, greedy, profiteering rivals.

Income should be tied to the contribution made by the employee to the success of the employer.
More contribution to success, more income.
Even Pelosi should be able to comprehend that simple reality.

300,000,000 x $500/mo x12= 1,980,000,000,000.
That,s 2 Bazillion per year,
Bread will cost $5,000 per loaf and gas will be $10,000 per gallon.
Great idea Wuhan Nan.

That’s called “welfare payments.” We already have it.

There should be NO next stimulus package. You have credible support for the 1st package. Millions provided to the arts, etc. Take a hike along with your piglets, Nancy and don’t return.

During the Obamacare debacle Nervous Nancy was always saying that people who wanted to follow their hearts and be an artist or philosopher or basically stay in their parents basement and not work, should get free health care. She said our children should be able to do what they want. Now, she wants to destroy the economy by paying them not to work? It's not only dementia with her, she's batty.

Those people eligible for guaranteed income would not work, so we would import illegals to do the work. Alternatively, Soros, Buffett, Gates, and Pelosi are worried about other people not having enough money, so maybe just take theirs and use that.

"[A]s we go forward, let’s see what works,”
Obviously no one but 'workaholics' and those with an entrepreneurial spirit will be among the "what works' group.

I declare an end to all work we'll just give everybody money. Well I guess somebody will have to crank the handle on the press, heck we'll even outsource that. We can buy everything we need from other countries who will be glad to work while we party just to get the money we print. They wouldn't dare prefer their own currency that represents the product of human production right?

"With all the best intentions in the world, but nonetheless, we want the money to go where it needs.”
She's slipping into incoherence again. Auditioning to be Biden's running mate before she goes and has a pigment transplant?

How about we see where in the constitution the fedgov is authorized to hand out money as charity? Hint: You won't find it authorized to do so. So they need to stop, including all the 'welfare' payments. They don't have the constitutional authority to do it.

Is that on top of the state unemployment and $600.00 per week federal unemployment? People are making more not working that they were when they worked. Why should they return to work when their employer calls them back. They will just say that they are afraid to return due the virus and will get to continue to stay home, no questions asked (thanks to some crazy law). Living large on the government because of government instilled fear will become the new norm which many will, and already have, become accustomed to.

How about every household gets a $24,000 dollar frig loaded with Nan's ice-cream. Seems fair.

When did the real Democrat Party die, and the Communist Party just changed their name (since the Democrats weren't using the name any more)?!?!?!?!?
