Should Andrew Yang Give Everyone Unlimited Money?

The vast majority of people need to give in order to be truly happy....

There are countless thousands of times I have NOT GIVEN in order to further my own happiness.

There are a few times if have given to further my own happiness.

One sort of time I never give is when someone is telling everyone they have to give to be truly happy.

So If I tell everyone they have to not give in order to be happy that you will actually give more?

The whole monetary concept is really dumb if you break it down and if there was an advanced alien civilization they wouldn't waste time on such stupid matters.  Point blank, the earth has more than enough resources for everyone we just have not been able to structure a capable system yet.

If we go far enough with the free money thing, it will simply turn into giving. Everybody gives of his time and talent and labor to everybody else... pure socialism. Then some of the people will decide they can get away without giving. And others who have loving hearts will give extra out of love. Next thing you know, we will be back to slaves and masters just like we have today.

My post about "giving" was in response to this one.  Sorry I did not use the quote box.  It was the post directly above mine.

It was basically a claim that people cannot just sit idle and be happy.  We obtain happiness by making ourselves useful, being needed, and producing things.

I really think that is what we should do, Anyone in the FED cannot create any money, and the rest of the people can create unlimited.

The FED doesn't create money. They get the people to do it. All bank loans are not loans at all. They are creations of new money.

Quantum Easing isn't the FED creating new money. Rather, it is the FED allowing someone in Government to get a big, fat Government loan for Government.
