Darmik 08/29/18 7:08:15 AM #7:	Program cut short Ontario's former Liberal government launched the program in April 2017. Participants were told they'd receive cheques every month for three years. A spokesman for Premier Doug Ford said during the campaign that a Progressive Conservative government would let the program run its course. "We look forward to seeing the results," party spokeswoman Melissa Lantsman told The Toronto Star. The PCs changed their tune in July and announced they would "wind down" the program. Participants hadn't been notified before the press conference, and tell HuffPost Canada they still haven't received further information about when their income will stop. So it was cancelled because the Progressive Conservative Party didn't live up to their election promise to keep a program running from the previous administration? --- Kind Regards, Darmik <cite>Darmik posted [p:907741380] in Looks like...

UBI is nothing more than an attempt to pacify the working class so they become more comfortable having their labor exploited. It is better than not having it in a capitalist society, but ultimately it isn't compatible with socialism. I don't agree with your rhetoric because I think capitalism is the best current system for providing the most people with the highest quality of life, but you are correct that nothing about a UBI is socialist. It is a form of welfare state capitalism. What is often termed the social safety net designed to provide the least well off with an acceptable standard of living. --- Favorite Games: BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Street Fighter III: Third Strike, Bayonetta, Bloodborne thats a username you habe - chuckyhacksss <cite>ssjevot posted [p:907744198] in Looks like...

Reminder that Mal also said the Cold War started in the 80s I like how you guys always need to make shit up every time you're losing an argument. It's ok, people. UBI sucks.
