Andrew Yang suspending his campaign
- Thread starter Halbrand

UBI will be needed before the end of this decade or else you will see further social erosion. Him being the only person even talking about it is a red flag for our preparations, even if one can object to the specifics of his plan..
User Banned (2 weeks): Inappropriate joke dismissive of women's issues
Women actually make up a larger potion of the population than men, so really I should be listing Biden.
F's in chat
He raised a lot of issues that probably wouldn't have been brought up otherwise, but yeah, now is a good time to get out for him.

Glad he ran, he brought up some good talking points about where technology is going and what threats we'll face in the future. I think in most other years he could have been more prominent, but he wasn't a good candidate for this election cycle.
Sanders is one of the few candidates that doesn't want to bring us back to "normal" but to start tearing at the scar tissue we've carried along for decades.
We either address all of the issues we face at once, settle for a return to mediocrity, or allow a movement into a dictatorship. Pick one.
When talking about minorities we often look at the context. So women in politics would be listed.
Similar to how you did not list all white people on the stage, despite them not being the majority of the world population.
Yang is awesome! I hope he stays in politics.
Why do people keep thinking superdelegates stole Bernies nomination? Didn't clinton have like millions more votes than Bernie?
OK, I'll include them along with Tulsi, who's a threefer as a woman, Hindu and Samoan (she could have been fourfer, but unfortunately Russian stooges now make up a majority of the government).
His numbers were so low, I don't know that it's even worth thinking about.
60k votes was the difference between Clinton and Trump winning the presidency.
Him and Booker were the only candidates speaking about the need to accelerate the commercialization of advanced gen iv+ molten salt reactors (MSRs) which will play a crucial role in mitigating global warming, in that it would be a sustainable base load power generation solution and allow renewables more time for r&d to increase efficiency.
He can try. A significant enough portion of his audience are former Trump people, some of which have implied if Yang is out, they're gonna go back to him.
It's gonna be up to Yang to use the fame and notoriety he gained to help campaign against that. Of course, that becomes harder to do when you elect candidates who have been part of the problems, like Biden...
Right, but his supporters won't all go to one candidate. They will spread out. His numbers are so low, after they disperse, it's not going to do much for anyone.
Sucks. Ubi is a concept that will.have to be dealt with soon.
Not a perfect candidate, but automation and offshoring are nothing to ignore.
Hopefully in 2024 or 2028 someone runs with the idea.
Social security for all?

The way the America is going, wages being the same for decades while the prices of literally everything rise. where drug prices are so high they're in another galaxy. where college can put you in debt for almost your entire working life. where a broken arm can put you out on the street because of hospital bills. UBI will be absolutely necessary and even the old GOP crones will support it over any sort of change to capitalism.
whos he endorsing, come on Yang, show the haters your a Democrat.
also, i liked who he was, and it was nice seeing a Asian trying and getting attention.

The last lifeline the left has that is preventing them from going full UBI is the federal jobs program and raising the minimum wage, and yet from an Obama era report, people who work in services who make less than $20 an hour are at very high risk of losing their jobs completely.
Remind me what we're trying to raise the minimum wage to? Something clearly in the range of risk, still.
Like the ACA, the current movement is a band-aid, only for the bleeding to continue, and then for an epiphany to occur: band-aids don't stop bullet wounds. It's a shame so few see this.
The Pod Save America peeps played some short interviews they did with 3 Iowa Caucus people who were for Yang. All 3 said their alternative if it wasn't Yang... Trump.
