But this should never be a substitute for working, and that's something that I want to stress.

How about incentivizing low income working people with UBI money, if you have a job but it's below XX,XXX a year get a bump from UBI, if you don't work and are able too, you need to not be given as much.

I made it more clear (hopefully) that the 0.05 was for the item including shipping internationally.

Ok I see how I miss read it now, sorry for interrupting!

Happy selling!

In an ideal world, there would be no welfare whatsoever. However, in the US I do think that UBI is a more reasonable path forward than continuing the current welfare system. Currently the US has probably thousands of different welfare programs, each with tons of overhead. Better to just mail everyone a check. It also significantly improves incentives, for example fixing the issue you mentioned of people getting trapped in welfare. According to Charles Murray's In Our Hands, $13k/year would be cheaper than the existing welfare system. Here's an interview with Murray.

However, I only consider it acceptable if it replaces all other welfare, including heath-care-related welfare, and I suspect that this will never be politically possible. I'd also like it to result in an elimination of all work-related regulations such as minimum wage, since with UBI there should be no excuse that people are being forced to work and therefore the government needs to protect them.

Is replacing the current social assistance programs with a wealth distribution plan really a good idea?  What I mean is currently welfare budget is reserved for "those" in need which is a pretty small percentage of People.  If we take the same budget (meaning the 13k threshold) and redistribute it to EVERYONE, folks who need the assistance will get much less.

I would love a "free" 13k, but I don't need it.  A family making 36k a year needs it more than I do, so why not talk about increasing the threshold for these programs.

Btw IMO it's not only welfare that's not keeping up and meeting the needs.  I see skilled blue collar people that could once but a home with those skills.  Now with the price of house's sky rocketing and those wages not corresponding don't allow a new young skilled person to have the hope of a buying a family home.

13k is such a small amount of money who could hope to live on that a year?  The poor will get poorer and the rich will get insignificantly richer.

I forgo my 13k per year so someone who needs it can have it.  The welfare system sucks, but redistributing it people that clearly don't need it seems counter productive to me!

Rare Ledger Nano S pizza limited edition factory sealed

Asking: 0.0475 BTC

Free SHIPPING: to 50 US States Only.   International 0.05 BTC Shipped

International shipping is more than the purchase price and seems a little high, $325 bucks shipping phew hope that's a typo and you missed a 0  I've heard of making up some margin on shipping but this seems a little extreme!  Cool

It's an interesting question... As they have unlimited fiat, have successfully executed decades of rapes with total impunity, I think it's highly probable. who are your best guests?

Now mind you my command of the troll language isn't as good as it used to be, I think the translation is.

"Flying Hellfish deleted one of my dozens of threads in the P&S section.  I need meds for mental stability but I refuse to take them.  Instead of asking or finding out why the thread was deleted I am here to call everyone pedo's and shit post up a storm in Meta now".

I could be wrong though, he might be really off his rocker today for some totally other insane reason lol.

Edit: I'm team vaccine as well!

752  Other / Politics & Society / Re: US Military ‘prepared’ and may strike Iran next month – reports on: August 03, 2018, 11:27:21 PM
Iran is the largest state sponsor of terrorism. It would probably be best to remove the government nonviolently, preferably by getting their people to overthrow it.

Wait, do you actually think overthrowing that government by the people is a non violent solution?  Or did you mean non violent for America? LOL

No escrow for me. Will pay direct. So PM me the details

On an account that had zero trust and password reset recently?
You know better than that.....

I know we have all changed our passwords from time to time (or at least we know we should LOL) and I am not accusing anyone of anything but the seclog shows the OP changed his PW about half an hour before posting this topic.

He was also inactive for ~7 months before that, is he a known users from last year or before?  Perhaps he could sign an old address to verify it's the original user?

Did people pay and not get anything (other than Krog)?

What a shitshow!

Indeed

Yup, he is use ukcrypto
Part of the woodcollector saga apparently.

The rest of us got our coins last week and they have been distributed already Cheesy
Everyone paid and OP was sent funds as agreed.

Thanks


Glad almost everyone got their goods so far, hopefully Krog's will show up too!

BTW what is the woodcollector saga?
754  Other / Meta / Re: How to report Member, not post? on: August 03, 2018, 05:03:53 AM
Can default trust members put negs on somebody and then tell them to pay up to remove it?

Yes they can, and I would be very surprised if they were banned for it.  They would likely be removed from DT by whomever had them listed, and painted red for days, but the staff in "official" capacity likely wouldn't act.

If you really think this is some felonious assault you need to contact law enforcement.  They would contact theymos with appropriate legal documents and theymos would comply or fight it, both of which I believe he has done before.  Those are the proper channels to follow not complaining about a bad report and banning another user.

Frankly you sound a little butthurt about a single report not being handled and a user not being banned.

But if the forum isn't thwarting provable criminal activity, what has it become? What will the community turn into?

I mean the core of the community (we have a bit of a spam issue ATM LOL) will become what it has always been.  A community based on open, borderless, permissionless, trustless, decentralized technology we call the blockchain.

The forum is not judge jury and executioner over every contract made on the forum.  Learning how to transact and navigate a borderless, permissionless, trustless technology is not always easy or safe.  But everyone will learn when it is the new norm!!  Cool

That actually gets me really excited. I'm happy that you received your hoodie, and I'm really looking forward to having a couple of photos from you Smiley Very happy to hear that you like what you received, hopefully the rest feel the same way about theirs. Don't hesitate to order another! I'll get the next one out even quicker than the last one.

Dude it was really quick, much faster than your estimates! I like that and quality is good!  Too bad I didn't know some hot chick I could put it on to take pics of LOL.  I grab some soon as I can mate a little busy atm!

extortion is a federal and state crime punishable by up to 20 years in prison (in USA).

So call the cops...

I got my hoodie today!!!!

I really like it and it was a pretty quick turn around.  I won't get a chance to wear it for a while, it's still the middle of summer!

Will try to get a pic of it when I get some spare time!

Thanks for a great product!
