How many of my xi bucks do I have to spend to acquire a certified Lemmygrad Gold account?
In the UK, the only warning system we have is receiving a text message. And even that is a hit or miss because only half of the people I know actually received one when the govt was testing the system a couple years ago.
Okay... So this sounds like most western prisons.
What's their point in trying to demonize China specifically?

Here's the thing I don't like about UBI though.
If the govt pays out, say 500 bucks every week into my account as part of a UBI payment, what stops landlords from just increasing their rent, or supermarkets and local utility monopolies from raising their prices just because they can?
At that point, you're back to square one, and still under threat of being homeless and starving just because you've been priced out of the market. Additionally, UBI will only exacerbate the problem of wealth inequality, as while poorer families will be using the payments to pay for necessities they need to survive, wealthier families who straight up don't need the extra help will just use it to accumulate and horde more assets, on top of receiving increased profits from all the poorer families putting their entire UBI payments towards affording their increased prices.
What we should be doing instead, is providing universal basic services. Free housing, food, water, electricity, transport, healthcare, education, guaranteed work, and so on. Everything you need to live a basic subsistence, provided at little to no cost to everyone who needs it with no strings attached. From there, if you want additional luxuries like a bigger house, vacations abroad, etc, then you would need to work, but you won't be fucked if there happens to be no work going around.
At least Biden wasn't arresting students for having an anti-israel opinion.
Yes, actually, he was.

Americans must have the memory and/or the attention span of a goldfish.
Yeah, absolutely. Pretty much all of my devices are on some variant of Debian, but that's not always feasable for some folks, so with that method, at least you're not paying Microsoft through the nose for the privilege of harvesting your data.
