We need to focus on getting the country back on the road to sanity and finding the center before we can even think about some of these far left ideas. I just want to feel safe walking down the street again.
A question related to the UBI discussion that is relevant to this thread is just how instantly judgmental the voting public is upon the invocation of socialism. The word itself. There is an immediate association with communism. Language lost the Dems seats in the Senate and the House.
