@piersmorgan Too slow to react to an inevitable situation. And now we are all so focussed on flattening the curve, wake up everyone

@rtenews Myself and quite a number of friends and family strongly believe we have had the virus already, with all the talk now of antibodies is it possible to get tested to see if we have had it ?

This is huge. One of the biggest tests of basic income so far and the results are - again - very encouraging. vox.com/future-perfect…

Let's get real. The idea of guaranteeing jobs as a response to machines doing jobs is an absolutely absurd notion. @AndrewYangVFA on #BasicIncome VS Federal Jobs Guarantee

Holy shit. They did it. The crazy bastards did it. @MSNBC created a graphic with photos of the 20 candidates to appear in the first debates, and they actually went so far as to remove @AndrewYang and include someone who didn't even qualify. This is shameless in how brazen it is.

Basic Income Canada @basicincomecdn

40 per cent of existing Canadian jobs will disappear over the coming decade as technology automates their work. How about creating a #BasicIncome for every Canadian? A floor we can all stand on in these very precarious times.

@JohnDelaney Please say it. Universal Basic Income. I’ve been waiting for the Overton window to shift. Universal Basic Income. It’s not taboo. We talk find a solution that isn’t “well, we gotta have more jobs!” Some of the fastest growing jobs include being servants for the rich.

New study finds bipartisan support for taxing the rich: - 54% of Republicans in favor of higher capital gains tax. - 55% of Republicans support financial transaction tax. - 65% of Republicans want higher tax on incomes over $5 million. It's common sense. washingtonpost.com/politics/2019/…

What a stunning graph. Growth in health care administrators vs. growth in health care providers in the US. Health care for everyone is not 'too expensive', the current system is.

@tomhappens you played a version of wicked game in the radio recently, I couldn’t Shazam as I was driving. I think you said the singer supported Janelle Monae recently, or you definitely spoke about her after you played the song. love to know who sings this, beautiful version 🙏🏼

If you think much higher taxes on the rich and radical climate action are unrealistic, remember: 'The status quo is totally unrealistic.' - Historian @TimothyDSnyder commenting on my book, this week in Vienna. (Longer version: facebook.com/WienerVorlesun…)
