But if this is to ultimately be for ALL people, the money needed to provide it will be staggering...
After all, people who still have jobs will still get this money, right? Why bother to work if the deadbeats are still getting a check for doing absolutely nothing...
Where is the money to provide this "Universal Basic Income" going to come from?
How will employers that still have a workforce respond in terms of existing wages?
How much inflation will this cause? What will happen to home prices/rents/leases/etc costs?
Don't seeing it working realistically until human nature changes dramatically...
You are probably right, I'm just used to dealing with...lesser minds so I tend to read malice/ignorance into things. One of the big disadvantages to internet posts, not body language/facial expressions, etc
You are the fool. It's not a crime to carry lots of money, but the cops will call you a dealer, steal your money and you'll never see it again, even if you are never even charged with anything.
Claim your dog is telling you the truth of the universe and how life should be run, they lock you up in a mental institution.
Claim your "god" is doing the same thing and get tax exempt status...
No, they aren't morons, they are EVIL.
They KNOW what they are proposing is wrong, but they do it anyway.
Greed for money and power drives them, bought and paid for by the 1%.
In the 70s,80s, 90s, would anyone have dreamed of the trampling of the Constitution that the government does nowadays, using 9/11 as a huge lever to bring in more trampling of citizens rights under the guise of "security"....
Set it at one temperature and keep it there. 68 degrees (Fahrenheit for those who are temperature-impaired) Big home with lots of people, always someone home at one time or another.
Not my fault you like the temp so high you need to adjust it constantly, seek a doctor's help.
You children who need to adjust the thermostat even 10 seconds are so CUTE....
Set it and forget it. You don't need to continually adjust the settings unless you have some kind of serious medical or mental issue....
"If they are so worried about 'da torrorists', perhaps the gubbermint should stop picking fights and arming them."
Of maybe they should remember they are supposed to work for us, the citizens and uphold the Constitution. Maybe then Americans wouldn't consider the government the enemy...
More likely Google and Apple (and Samsung, etc) dumped money into their congress critters to get this to avoid having to produce different phones/OSs for each state...
The government doesn't need nor should they have Backdoors and bans on encryption. Citizens have more rights than the government, and they need to learn that, even if it's the hard way
What kind of phone did the shooter have that the FBI claims they can't crack, I see sales skyrocketing if this is true.
IT's not Aplle, Google, etc's job to make LE job's easier.
The customers want security, it's the phone makers job to provide it. Sounds like they are doing a good job
(Assuming the story is true and this isn't just the increasingly evil government's attempt to destroy the Constitution and rape american citizen's rights...)

Sounds like we have wire-tapping laws that need to be brought against Samsung and other companies whose products do this.

are a bigger problem that how many fps a timer thinks a games is recorded in.
Exactly, just because the majority (at least the vocal majority) supports something does NOT make it "Right"
You are the fool. It's not a crime to carry lots of money, but the cops will call you a dealer, steal your money and you'll never see it again, even if you are never even charged with anything.
And you pay for the money order, so your bills cost more than they are actually for. Great racket
The idea that a law is needed for this just makes me wish the asteroid would hit the "reset life" button on earth already,,,
MPAA and RIAA releases tainted movies and music on torrents themselves...
Or crucified Mohammed in a jar being pissed on...
Claim your dog is telling you the truth of the universe and how life should be run, they lock you up in a mental institution. Claim your "god" is doing the same thing and get tax exempt status...
Yep, it's just as barbaric as "extremist islam"
Your words would carry more weight were you not an "Anonymous Coward"
Except the police aren't there to protect you....they are there to protect "the state"

No, No tax/tariff trade agreements have helped increase unemployment. Some nice protectionist policies would do wonders towards fixing the problem.
No mod points currently, this needs to be +5
Dear Facebook, just cut french users off until they pressure their government to get real.

Tough shit FBI.
