Let’s just end it here hey.

I don’t have the patience or energy right now.

If you don’t believe that people were saying that Biden/Trump/Harris would all be equally as bad for Palestine then I don’t know what to tell you.

It’s really doesn’t matter and as I said earlier. Take care and have a nice evening.

I’m back

I forgot that I actually asked a question about it so here a whole thread where you can quite easily see people saying it.

Dude you sound insane.

I’m not lying and I’ve said numerous times that the comments are there.

Can you share the screenshots of mod log you checked that corresponds to the thread I linked? I most likely won’t reply tonight as I’m in bed now but I’ll happily continue tomorrow once you’ve shared what you found.

Thanks. Have a nice evening.

This is in my comment history and although the mod has removed the comments from the other person you can easily infer what they’re saying from what I’m replying. You could also use the mod log to recover those comments.

This will also give you a head start to browse my comments in the same time period as it was post election.

Not that I should have to do this for you, you should want to seek truth and not just shrug things off. Also, it would be nice to be a little more polite.

You can literally browse my comment history and see that many many people said this to me.

This is usual information and highlights I don’t have a great grasp on economics. Thanks for providing some more info.

I am not intentionally fear mongering and am just trying to recite objections that I have come up against when discussing this with colleagues etc.

I am for UBI.

So when I said cost of living I meant in general and not on an individual basis.

For example $1000 would cover all rent and bills, but then companies or landlords get greedy and raise prices so the cost of living is now $2000 making UBI futile. Rather than an individual increasing their own cost of living. If that makes sense.

Apologies for being vague, it’s been a while since I’ve had this discussion.

Perhaps I am misunderstanding UBI as being linked to the cost of living, in that the UBI would provide for people’s basic needs and if they wanted more than that then they could find a job to supplement their income or maybe it’s one or the other.

I think what they were getting at ok the raising prices is that because there is more spending power then that means corps would like to get their hands on this extra money by raising prices.

I’ll try and broach this topic again and get their objections and bring it up next time I see this discussion.

I’m not the other person but I’ve had this discussion in work before and people have hit back with the following:

This wouldn’t work because with all these people getting UBI would just mean companies would put prices up to levels making the UBI worthless. For example if the cost of living is $1000 and you give people who need it $1000 then before long the cost of living would rise to $2000.

Now I’m in support of doing more for the average person and taking from corporations but I just don’t know how to argue against their, albeit lacking in actual data, arguments.
