Maybe keep the cap but have government run kitchens for means tested kids. To be honest you could say that about anything really? What about the immigrants who come here and have kids abroad? Do we generally think parents who have too many kids are going to feed their kids properly? All a bit conundrum but yeah its the kids you have to feel sorry for.
Thinking about it what about the poor kids who are born because now sharon can have more kids, pocket the extra money to get herself a holiday whilst little ryan has to fend for himself at home with his 8 brothers and sisters
No ubi is ridiculous. The admin cost is trivial compared to benefits. Ubi of 5000 quid each (including children presumably) is like 300 billion and people cant live off of 5000 quid
Yeah. The hk grenfell. Good luck for those involved. Unfortunately one of those things. The higher you build and all. Hard one to analyse, people need to live but at the same time how much health and safety do you go through. Would we want more affordable housing for a more lax build? Not sure what is the cause but the bamboo scaffolding deffo cannot help
First thing I thought was Grenfell, but multiple Grenfells looking at the number of buildings involved, truly awful tragedy for those who live there.
Really awful. I guess the consolation here is the fire alarms i think went off and in the afternoon more people could get out from hearing the number that were injured,/killed. Grenfell happened in the middle of the night. I was listening to some lady who said she had her dog in there and she sounded heartbroken as all the residents are i am sure
Two National Guard shot near to the White House....this will be from Trump boasting yesterday about how safe he'd made Washington DC and how there had been no murders.
500 additional National Guard are being sent to Washington DC on Trumps request. Get the popcorn ready guys.
isn't that UBI, everyone gets the same amount paid out irrespective of income to live off that way you don't have to administer who gets what means tested. you are right though, theres closer to 70 million people than 60 so thats 350 billion a year on UBI. 1.4 trillion if we want to dole out 20k each to allow people to live properly
