Me to people who return to Mastodon whenever Twitter fucks up somehow

@TonyStark @MariaHill At least with UBI if you are in the so called economy you know how much you are going to earn.

The main question from me is would it count towards your tax free income allowance,

But yes lets try it and share the results far and wide so it feeds in to research

@MariaHill
Thanks, Maria.

My city is in the process of trying UBI on a small scale.

You bring up some important issues to consider. It cannot be an all-purpose cure-all by itself, then.

I hate when I say something to someone, they fundamentally misunderstand what was said, and they reply to it simply rehashing what I said but pretending I didn't say it, as if *I'm the one who misunderstood* 🙄 Just admit you were wrong, no need to double down when you're not even understanding plain language.

Every time policymakers or private companies tried to undermine your rights online in 2020, an year so intense it's almost a cliché to describe it as "unprecedented", we were there. eff.org/deeplinks/2020/12/2020

@hansw Ah ok I found this big long string of characters

@TonyStark If you are going to do this, why not simply adopt universal basic income, it doesn't have to be $2000 a month but some figure that is reasonable at least it will give people a life line.

@lig I like the idea of this, however surely services such as WriteAs could help here, as you can paste work / education history using markdown / plain text, combine that with some sort of image storage for scanning of certificates and it would be far better than the clunky LinkedIn System.

Keep it simple, is always going to be the best solution.

@TonyStark Not in the US but sharing as some of my contacts are, I wish the UK government would do this too. People are struggling not that someone like our PM educated at Eton would understand that of course

Democrats have been pushing for $2K relief checks for months (some of us for $2K paid on a monthly basis.)

So if he's going to offer it, let's hold him to it.

Everyone should call their Congressional Representatives today, especially their Republicans ones, and demand it.

Call the Capitol switchboard, 202-224-3121, and you'll get connected to your 2 Senators and your 1 House Representative. Say "I demand Congess pass the $2000 relief checks that Trump is promising."

Let's see what happens. Make a lot of noise. #CallToAction

Pelosi responds to Trump: Let's push for $2K checks 'this week'-

@ScienceDaily@newsbots.eu Given the current Covid crisis this is the sort of news that while not related to Covid can give people a real morale boost.
