      Oh that note, looking back, Andrew Yang might have been the best choice for a nominy in 2020.

      Imagine if chatGPT came out and then the president of US, who fully understands the enshitification and rug pull model of Silicon Valley just slapped a huge VAT tax on it, or maybe forced companies to charge the real price.

      Man Biden was such a bad choice in 2020

        Andrew Yang might have been known to treat his audience to a nominy, a folk orative tradition of speeches delivered with formulaic rhyming prose, much to the other nominees’ chagrin.

        I’ll give you that on Biden but nuh uh on Yang.

        On February 17, 2022, Yang announced the launch of a Web3 community whose membership token fees would be used to fund lobbying work on behalf of Web3, blockchain, and cryptocurrency interests on Capitol Hill.[64]

It considers itself to be the center within the American political spectrum, although the party has also been described as big tent or syncretic due to its unwillingness on holding any firm stances or positions,[4]

      UBI without price control is useless. Rent is just going to go up by that amount and same for utilities, food, etc.
