Well, that UBI thread was a hoot! It kind of broke off into the concept of general welfare towards the end, so to keep that thread uncluttered and open to discussing UBI specifically, how about we have a General Welfare discussion thread? Here, (after hopefully taking my little survey above) we can discuss various welfare programs of our many countries. We can talk about Unemployment Insurance, Pell Grants, or even topics like abuse or its affects on poverty or the economy! Please keep things civil and keep an open mind. This being one of my threads (and you know how I love to give out likes to anybody who contributes in my threads) I've decided to try and see if I can make things a bit more interesting: I shall provide likes to anyone who provides links to credible sources backing up their statements (regardless of whether I agree with their arguments or not) and encourage others to volunteer to do the same. Obviously, when I run out of likes in a day, I will have to wait until the next to continue doing so. I will try to keep up but reserve the right to be slow. The credibility of the sources is a judgement call on my and any other volunteer's part and while I will try to give the benefit of the doubt, I am under no obligation to justify why or why not I consider a source credible. Refutations are encouraged, but additional original or restated thoughts based on a previously provided source link will not net additional likes. I reserve the right to like posts based on their own merit, and remain under no obligation to explain myself. Sources based on statistically insignificant (as judged by me) information including, but not limited to, personal experience or anecdotal evidence do not qualify as credible sources for supporting evidence. If you've read this far, you're a nerd. Good on you! The contents of this post and all likes do not necessarily reflect the beliefs of the author and volunteers of this thread. Accept no substitutes.
