    People getting a basic income to spend as they please would make like much harder for people like Ong who sponge off loads of different types of benefits.

    On a more serious note it strikes me that most places will be going towards a system like that in the future.

    This trial is on a par with what I claim in benefits. It would make life much easier for me, because I wouldn't have to apply for jobs that I have no intention of taking on.

    Eliminating a dis-incentive is not the same as 'creating more incentive'.

    Clearly the amount of basic income everyone gets would be lower than the benefits people might get now, since it's paid to everyone. The point is that working would not cut your benefits as it does now, creating more incentive to find work.

    Sorry bout the somewhat non-shitpost.

    What I meant is that this basic income of £490 that they're giving is more or less the same as what I currently claim in total. And yes, you're right, if they had a similar system here, then it would greatly increase the chances of me getting some work, perhaps in a pub.

    Of course it's an extra incentive. Just because the vast majority of jobs out there are shit and not jobs I intend to take on, doesn't mean I'll never work again so long as I have benefits.

    Lets not get started on the meanings of similar and the same again.

    In context they are the same.

    Hey, that convo was about the meaning of same and opposite, which Ong claimed were related and thus identical. It was a philosophical tour de force.

    It is still my present, so I can confirm that it is certainly longer than a nanosecond. It's at least the time between since we had that discussion and now.

    I'm partial to Fruck-off but you're right Quitaly might be the overall highest quality.

    In class yesterday sitting next to chick who was moaning about how bad a day she was having because it was inauguration day. Other things about this chick:

    Obese.
    Messy.
    Cheats.
    Not smart.
    Brags about not being attractive.

    It's gotten to the point that I just assume the most well put together people in each of my classes is on the Trump Train and all the others are oppressed victims of oppressive mansplaining oppression.

    So how many people went to celebrate Trump's grand inauguration? I heard it was the lowest turnout for quite a while.

    How about those super low approval ratings? Rigged?

    Of course it was. Trump only got 4% of the vote in DC. Trump voters tend to have jobs too. Even then, relative to vote percentage, it was the highest turnout for a Republican inauguration. Too much winning.

    By the same people who got the election wrong. Can't take much more of this winning.

    If the model works.

    To be completely honest, the vast majority are generally considerate. Crybullies make up a small minority.

    Very smart. You are a very smart person. So smart that one day you will think to yourself "you know what, Trump did a smart thing here."

    What has Trump done to cause all these marches? Seems a bit odd to me. I get the sexist comments and the abortion comments (he's pretty lax on that in comparison to other GOP candidates though) but what is the point of it all?

    Being a man who beat a woman. That's most of it. The second largest portion is being a person whom the left's preferred media has designated as believing women are inferior. The third reason is that he is a Republican.

    It certainly is not the same.

    The Snowflake generation was too young to vote then.

    It was also pre-islamic terror, and the economy was doing pretty well. Fewer people gave a shit.

    It's alright. Great beer, weed is legal, mental people, but it's flat as fuck. I mean they have zero hills. It's weird, and slightly depressing. Still, it's way better than Belgium, which basically looks the same but doesn't have the awesome culture.

    Belgium's only redeeming factor is the beer.

    Even then it's inferior to Holland, Germany, Austria, Czech Republic and Poland. Though, their beer is fucking great compared to ours, it must be said.

    Sweden: rape capital of Europe. Swedes aren't allowed to talk about it without being labeled bigots even if it is the victim herself. The rapes are committed by a protected class, one that is steadily undermining the country itself.

    On a practical note, Sweden is probably fine to visit as long as you avoid key areas (and if you keep an eye out). But make no mistake, the Dangerous Faggot had to cancel his march in one of those areas because, well, they were going to kill him for, you know, being a dangerous faggot.
