    There has been no U in the UBI in any trials I have seen reported.

    Ok, my mistake. It's a conditional income program.

    Ok, so we're still at conditional UBI but this time it's for an oppressed minority.

    https://news.yahoo.com/california-city-universal-income-transgender-150602734.html

    So, now it's only transgenders who can get a no strings attached income.

    Ok, so good for them.

    But what if everyone else except cisgender white people get a UBI which is not universal because not everyone gets it?

    How does that make you feel? It just doesn't seem right to me.

    If you want to breed an even lazier generation than the one we currently have, implement UBI....

    Too bad the US cannot even afford this right now, with the government in so much debt.

    So anyone who claims to identify as transjenga can get the freeby? Fantastic.

    Who is the genius that came up with this?
