SUBSCRIBE 👉 https://www.prageru.com/join If the government gave people enough money to take care of their basic needs, could we eliminate poverty? Proponents of Universal Basic Income think so. Are they right? Would it really be that simple? Aldo Buttazzoni lays out the pros and cons of UBI. #ubi #basicincome #prageru @aldobuttazzoni Script: How does this sound? $1,000 a month. No questions asked. You don’t even have to buy a lottery ticket. All you have to do… is breathe. Too good to be true? Well, that depends on your view of UBI or Universal Basic Income. UBI is an idea that has been kicking around for a while. The concept goes like this: give people enough money to take care of their basic needs and we can eliminate poverty. In other words, we establish a floor below which no one will fall. Every citizen is provided for. Appealing, no? After all, we live in the wealthiest country on earth and yet we have people living in the street. It’s a moral travesty. UBI solves it. Of course, there’s the small question of who is going to pay for it. Giving $1,000 a month to every American citizen (that’s the Universal part of UBI) would cost something like three trillion dollars a year. That would make it by far the most expensive item in the federal budget. Of course, everybody’s taxes would have to go up to pay for this gigantic new expense. How much? David Henderson, an economist at the Hoover Institution calculates that to pay for UBI “the federal government would have to increase taxes by 74 percent.” Venture investor and former Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang, a vocal proponent of UBI, says we can fund UBI with a 10% value-added tax, which means that everything you buy will have a 10% surcharge built in. Would Americans agree to such a big tax on top of all the taxes they already pay? Seems unlikely. The chances, then, that we could raise the money in taxes—by any method—to pay for the program are almost zero. That means the government would have to make up the difference; that is, go deeper into debt, which is just another way of saying “print more money.” The inflation this would almost certainly cause would raise prices and make the dollars people were getting from UBI worth steadily less, therefore defeating the purpose of the entire enterprise. Of course, some proponents say that UBI would make many existing government assistance programs—like food stamps and Medicaid—unnecessary, and that would save a lot of money. Okay, but as generous as a $1,000 monthly giveaway might seem, do you really think it would cover food, healthcare, and other living expenses? Let alone your iPhone? For the sake of argument, let’s say money or inflation were not big obstacles. Would it be a good idea then? View the full script: https://l.prageru.com/45MqI4A

We’ll go down the rabbit hole and discuss what this story says about the state of our culture as it relates to dating, parenting, social media, and more. Let’s get into it.

The first GOP debate kicks off with fiery comments and one notable absence. A male nurse sues his female boss for sex discrimination—and wins. A king in the music industry may be losing his crown while mask mandates make their way back to Hollywood. And the man who led a revolt against Vladimir Putin dies in a suspicious plane crash. #wrapup #debate #mask

Nearly everyone complied with instructions to shelter in place, even though one look outside would have assured any rational person there was nothing to fear. Dennis discusses this perplexing behavior and asks why people trust the government and the media more than their own eyes.

As the Judeo-Christian values she grew up with were replaced with radical ideas about victimhood, oppression, and gender inequality, Annabella began to alienate her close friends and family. But in the summer of 2020, as riots broke out and cities burned across the country, Annabella saw the hypocrisy of her new worldview and sought out a different perspective. That’s when she stumbled on a PragerU video and realized she had been brainwashed. After discovering the truth, Annabella is now a happy, healthy, and proud patriot in the conservative movement. #college #politics

SUBSCRIBE 👉 https://www.prageru.com/join Are you worried about your future? Turn on the TV or scroll through social media and it’s hard not to be. But is there a brighter side to the story? Marian Tupy, senior fellow at the Cato Institute and co-author of Superabundance, explains why it’s a great time to be alive. Script: Are you worried about your future? Worse, do you even have a future? Many—especially those born in this century—are asking themselves these questions. In 2021 researchers at the University of Bath in England polled 10,000 people all over the world between the ages of 16 and 25. Seventy-five percent thought that the “future is frightening.” Fifty-six percent thought that “humanity” is coming to an end. Thirty-nine percent stated that they were “hesitant to have children” because the future was so bleak. Are their fears legitimate? Or is it possible there’s another side—a brighter side—to the story? That we are, in fact, the most fortunate human beings—ever. Just how lucky are we? The late great satirist P. J. O’Rourke summed it up in one word. Dentistry. One could easily add electricity, air conditioning, and—lest we forget—indoor plumbing. Louis XIV’s magnificent palace of Versailles had no proper waste facilities. People relieved themselves where they stood: in hallways, behind curtains, and in the gardens. One contemporary observer noted that Versailles was “the receptacle of all of humanity’s horrors—the passageways, corridors, and courtyards are filled with urine and fecal matter.” This is Louis XIV we’re talking about—maybe the richest man on earth at the time. Ask yourself this question: would you prefer to live in a studio apartment with electricity, a window air conditioner, and indoor plumbing or a Versailles palace with none of these things? In nineteenth-century London, American philosopher Ralph Waldo Emerson observed that no one wore white shirts—the pollution indoors turned everything black.
