Statewide Universal Basic Income Introduced in Assembly

[SZonian]

On Monday, a bill that would bring universal basic income (UBI) to all Californians was introduced to the Assembly.

Assembly Bill 65, authored by Assemblyman Evan Low (D-Campbell), would specifically create the California Universal Basic Income Program that, with taxpayer funding, would give an equal income to all Californians.

Previous attempts to bring UBI to the state level have been attempted before, including last sessions AB 2712, also authored by Low, that had fizzled out in committee without a vote.

BTW,does that mean that studio heads and Corporate Chief Operations Officers would all earn the same money as a McDonalds manager?

I bet THAT would be a fun fight to witness.

Eliminate all other forms of welfare and safety nets and I'm fine with this.

Well that would completely suck because a MickeyD's manager, at least a Franchisee's back in the day like me, actually puts in a 10 hour day and works.

This is why Pelosi is pushing for state bailouts.  California will just introduce one utopian plan after another, and the rest of us will have to pay for it.
