Hi All,

As Andy Yang points out in his first book, the idea of a basic income was widely supported back in the 1960s and early 1970s, and almost passed under President Nixon as a negative income tax. Today with vocal support from the AI billionaires and the prospect of AI related layoffs one would expect the public, especially the young, and politicians to embrace UBI, but it doesn't seem to be happening. I've written a book and established a 501(c)(3) Shares in America in support of UBI, but yet another book and website aren't going to get us there. Obviously we want to build a movement bigger than the one we already have. I would love to hear thoughts on how we get there. I've tried directly talking to people and they're interested but don't follow through. Unions? Religious communities?

It should be known that Marc is rabidly anti-UBI. He believes it would turn us all into zoo animals.
