 UBI is really stupid, highly inflationary, and totally inevitable.

 Inevitable once the Millennials gain control of the US political apparatus. 
 Don’t think this is true, there will be pushback from other millennials. Stop with the constant “millennials are the problem” and recognize the failures of boomers and gen x in the lessons they taught. 
 I’m not blaming the Millennial cohort. But in a democracy, the majority voting bloc gets to set the agenda. 

This has been true of the Baby Boomers over the past several decades, and it will soon be true of the Millennials, the up and coming largest voting bloc. 

It’s not a judgement call—it’s neither “good” nor “bad”—it’s just an observation. 

As smaller voting blocs, Gen X and Gen Z simply have to go along with this form of Mob Rule. 
 UBI is going to pump my bags so hard. 
 I should mention, in exchange, I will hire and pay people in btc. 
 As generations age, their political views shift conservative. This will happen to millennials, albeit at a later age due to their delayed life events. This delay is countered by the extended life span of boomers. 

I don’t think the outcome is as obvious as anticipated. 
 blame game does not work 
 Free shit wooooo  
 Interesting you say this. It wasn’t our GenX or Boomer employees who wanted to wait for their unemployment benefits to run out before coming back to work, it was all millennials. Of course they wanted us to continue paying for their health insurance until the UE benefits ran out too. 
 yeah. that’s right

i ’ll take care of it
