I predict Andrew Yang defeats Trump.
I’m just nowhere near convinced that UBI is workable. There’s hardly any conclusive research, let alone findings that unambiguously point towards the good results UBI proponents claim. It’s just been endless articles backed by thought experiments. And if thought experiments are sufficient as proof of UBI’s plausibility, then why don’t thought experiments about the disincentives to work just as sufficiently torpedo UBI? Society and institutions are the result of evolved processes of trial and error. This seems like a reckless hard restart. I say that as someone very interested in reforming the shit out of the current system, and open to gathering more evidence for UBI.
Bold prediction when there's more candidates joining the race every week and there's 20 months of shitshow before a showdown.I predict Andrew Yang defeats Trump.
I made the same prediction, just as early re Trump winning. And I wasn’t being flip. I knew Trump would win. I don’t have the same confidence re Yang, but I think he has a real shot. My gut tells me so.
Right, I didn't remember it was you predicting Trump. Anyway I'm part way through the interview and he's doing a better job than most I've heard talking about UBI. I'm curious to see how the dynamics of a crowded Democratic primary play out.
