Universal basic income is an idea that has enjoyed support from figures as intellectually diverse as Thomas Paine and Friedrich Hayek, Martin Luther King Jr. and Milton Friedman.
In 1970, Richard Nixon championed a universal basic income to establish an economic floor for the poor. The Chicago Sun Times called it “A Giant Leap Forward,” the Los Angeles Times “a bold new blueprint.” The National Council of Churches, the labor unions, and even the corporate sector were also all in favor. The House of Representatives overwhelmingly passed it and it almost became law.
With rapid advancements in artificial intelligence and robotics, studies are estimating that up to half of all U.S. jobs could be automated in the next two decades. And UBI is surging back with experiments in the U.S. and around the world, as well as a spot in our People's Platform!
Join one of the world's leading experts on universal basic income to discuss the policy, its rising profile in U.S. politics, its benefits, how we should structure it, and much more. Catch Scott Santens and Nick Braña live on MPP TV!

PANDEMIC BLUES
I just have to say this - no ifs, ands, or buts, this stupid pandemic is driving me nuts.
No boss, no alarm clock, but lots of tv
just isn’t the fun that I thought it would be.
I’ve got to do something. I’m tired of just sitting. And I’m not the type to be taking up knitting.
It’s time to get busy and stop being whiny;
I’ve got to do more than just sit on my hiney.
Wait here’s an idea - I’ll join MPP, and meet lots of people who think just like me. I heard they have workgroups, some techie, some arty, all busy creating a new people’s party.
I’ll bet they can use me. I’m good at some stuff. As long as I’m helpful, that should be enough.
Today is the day I completely shift gears, I’m done with those Dems I supported for years.
They cannot be trusted; I’ll say my goodbyes, and look to the future with wide-open eyes. Instead of just being a Democrat sheeple, I’ll help build a party that stands for the people.

Did you see this march on your cable TV so called news stations this past Sunday October 21, 2018? Of course you didn't because it's not helpful to the Plutocrats that own this country. It's not helpful to the war profiteers. Did you miss all the folks from the other women's March? Please read Caity Johnstone's quote below which sheds some light. Please share this everywhere. We are the news media. ⤵️
"In reality, the only people who benefit from Democrats or Republicans controlling the US government are the plutocratic class which owns them both. The #Resistance is an astroturf movement manufactured in DC by establishment manipulators to harness the grassroots energy of the Bernie Sanders movement, and when you strip away the adoring narratives of his supporters and the hysterical narratives of his political opponents, Trump is not significantly different as a president from his predecessors. Both are posing as organic grassroots populism. Both are artificial manipulations staged to herd the public into supporting establishment politics for the benefit of the powerful."
(Independent Journalist Caitlyn Johnstone)
