    Andrew Yang believes so strongly that college athletes should get paid that he’s made it a policy position of his presidential campaign.


    Plus health care and universal basic income. :woot:

    No Canada-1.png
    Across an immense, unguarded, ethereal border, Canadians, cool and unsympathetic,
    regard our America with envious eyes and slowly and surely draw their plans against us.


    :omfg: Is Andrew Yang out to :flagcanada:ize, :flagus:

    Foreign Policy, I Like It.
    https://www.yang2020.com/policies/foreign-policy-first-principles/
    Of course all Presidents need an "operation manhood"
    to demonstrate :flagus: power in foreign wars.


    America is the beneficiary of the international world order we helped establish throughout the twentieth century. That said, we have deluded ourselves into thinking that we are capable of doing things that we are not, sometimes at a terrible cost to ourselves and others. My first principles concerning foreign policy are restraint and judgment – we should be very judicious about projecting force and have clear goals that we know we can accomplish. We should treat our men and women in the armed services as the brave and self-sacrificing leaders that they are, both during and after their deployments. If I send young men and women into harm’s way, they will know that vital national interests are at stake and there is a clear plan for them to achieve their goal in a reasonable time frame.

    Well I guess Boeing and Lockheed and other war industries won't be to forthcoming with support ;)
    Remembering Lockheed's eulogy for their big supporter, John McCain.


    Would Yang really be different?

    Universal basic income, medicare for all, "human centered" capitalism.

    Sounds like an Asian version of Bernie.

    One of the benefits of capitalism is it forces the seller to be sensitive to the demands of the buyer.

    I'd call that "human centered".

    Like most other democrats, Yang is a racist.


    Democratic Candidate Andrew Yang Predicts White People Will Shoot Up Asians

    New York entrepreneur and 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang said disaffected members of a “shrinking, insecure white majority” could begin targeting Asians for mass shootings within a generation.

    “And who is going to be the boogeyman of the next 10 to 20 years?” Yang rhetorically asked his audience. “Who’s going to be the great rival to the United States in the eyes of American society? China, that’s right. And so, what do you think the attitude is going to be over time for the shrinking, insecure white majority that’s losing their jobs for, let’s say, Chinese Americans or Asian Americans?

    Yang continued:


    I don’t … I said to a group at Harvard, I think we’re one generation away from falling into the same camps as that the Jews who were attacked in a synagogue in Pittsburgh like just a couple months [ago]. So we’re probably one generation away from an American shooting up a bunch of Asians saying like, damn the Chinese, because there’s a giant Cold War even more with China. That is the great danger that I fear that my children are going to grow up in.

    Work with our allies to rebuild our stature in the world, and strengthen alliances such as NATO

    Definitely not. You can't be anti war and pro NATO.

    Well, Yang is my first choice for winning in the primary.

    As for the general election, The American voters are likely going to pick a Democrat for President. It's their revenge for having to deal with Trump.

    What capitalism.

    Capitalism is about letting inferior, not profiting companies fail,
    not bail outs.

    Capitalism is NOT Private Profits
    Socialized losses as we now experience.

    What would you term the current :flagus: system?
    Not capitalism I hope.
    Maybe, Corporate Socialism. Gov't taking care, socialist style, of Inc.-s.



    "Let Them Fail", Ron Paul, M.D. ret. Congressman

    ? the last capitalist ?



    Apologies for straying from the candidacy of Andrew Yang.

    He was the bullied Asian kid growing up.

    Remember, Kristi Yamaguchi didn't get her picture on the Wheaties box
    as customary for her accomplishments because in the early 90's
    Who Wanted To See An Asian Face on a Wheaties box. Breakfast of champions.

    No thanks, I'd rather vote 'neo-con' than 'stealth-prog'.

    Talk about paranoid delusion. It's not white conservatives who're literally trying to hold Asians back.

    Universal basic income- how, specifically is this getting paid for
    Universal healthcare- how, specifically is this getting paid for.
    Until those questions are answered, no thanks

    There's no good answer to this question. The answer will invariably require eating the rich (then moving on to lower tax brackets), nationalizing industries, printing money to the extent that it's worthless... and every other horrible idea under the sun.

    A Value added tax (VAT) tax on technology. Other countries already have it.

    How about no. No more taxes (no matter how 'harmlessly' named).

    And the tech companies do nothing in response? What would the government have to do to tech companies to ensure compliance?

    No thanks. It doesn't matter which way you try to spin in it. It'll result in bigger government, more regulation, more bureaucracy.
