1. So I present you with a Canadian version of something that is not accepted as being defined worldwide, and your response is USA! USA! USA! ?

2. Well who brought up the point that led to that response?

2). "I'm pretty sure an astronaut has a choice to be an astronaut. I don't think a fetus has a choice in the environment (financial, educational, emotional, medical, etc...support) they are born into."

If it was so unrelated, why did they use that as a response? Same reason they thought Hitler somehow ties into this? Hitler is becoming like Franks Red Hot for politics.

1). It's not an acceptable definition because that was a pilot program.  I just told you that.  It was a flat rate and not tied to Cost of Living.  That's not even going to be a valid reference point for the entirety of Canada much less globally. Then I gave you an example of how that wouldn't function as a livable income. You of all people should know I'm not one to shout USA!. I critique the US probably harder than just about any member here.

2). Wow.  You really don't get it? I'm just going to have to start ignoring your analogies and metaphors.

1. It wouldn't work in America you said. I told you it would work here. Are you saying if it would work then it's not UBI? Then what's the point of UBI?

I'm all ears for hearing about what UBI is exactly. A gravity like description would suffice since it's universal.

2. Who's getting it seems to be up for debate. You're free to think up is down. I mean, when it comes to the big picture of space, well.
