You dipshit, you can't even look up basic facts. You probably shouldn't criticize others when you think US GDP is 5 Trillion you shit eating moron.

Jesus fucking christ you moron, US GDP is almost almost 17 Trillion you fucktard. The goddamn federal budget is around 4 trillion, and that's without UBI.
Stop talking you fucking idiot.
You're talking to a brick wall here, this guy doesn't get it.
You completely fail to understand the concept. You don't get UBI for making specific choices, everyone gets UBI. Period. What you choose to do after that is your business. If you want to live in hip popular areas, good for you, get a job so you can afford it. If you don't want to work, then yes you get to pick up and move to where your UBI is a sufficient amount of money for survival.
Are you shitting me? Local government is the most oppressive? Are you going to claim that US local governments have a combined yearly budget of $around 4Trillion? Do local governments wage war around the world? Who is preventing more expansion these days, local governments or the EPA? Where are business regulations done, locally or federally?
Libertarians are all about eliminating oppressive laws at all levels of government. Who do you think is fighting for removing prohibitions on drugs or when alcohol can be sold or when businesses can and cannot be open?
Fucktards like you who haven't got a clue are part of the reason libertarians get smeared online. You're either a partisan liar, willfully ignorant or utterly stupid.
So, ummm... Hitler? Stalin? Mao? Pol Pot? Those names ring any bells? Government is never to be trusted. It may be a necessary evil, but it's definitely evil.
People on the internet are, by and large, morons.
I'm a libertarian who, while against the idea of people getting something for contributing nothing, understands that realities of automation may force us into some kind of UBI model.
I believe it's in our future in some form, the trick is going to be getting it right.
Despite being made without labor costs, presumably there's still some scarcity. At it's core, an economy is really just a system for managing the distribution of scarce goods. So if goods are still scarce, then some sort of credit system is still required.
LOL, right, it's the scary libertarians. After all, what near-anarchist wouldn't want to sign up to belong to of as many governments as they can.
Some of you slashdot idiots and your straw manning of libertarians is amusing.
I'm having trouble finding specific timelines for this, but from the sounds of it the breach began two years ago and they only recently discovered and disclosed it.
So these esteemed *barf* senators are upset that it took so long to notice the breach? Were they that upset when it was discovered the the government run OPM database had been compromised for YEARS?
Political grandstanding by a bunch of useless dipshits.
Actually, nevermind that, after watching a few minutes it's not the video I was thinking of.
Poor people live in urban areas. Urban areas have fast broadband because it's easy and cheaper per residence to run more lines in high density population zones. It's farmers who have slow internet because they live in the boonies.
You don't have a clue, do you?
So it's more important to spend millions of dollars getting high speed internet to some cabin in the mountains for a hermit who doesn't even want it, than to provide higher speed for 1000 people in an urban area?
That's just plain stupid. You're a Democrat, aren't you.
