We know that income isn't tax at the same rate of capital gains tax right?
Also maybe worth looking at how big of a tax break Amazon got for their R&D budget who only benefits... Amazon.
The thing that matters here is the rate, the tax rate and America has it wrong, I consume the same % as a wealthy person, my class collaborated way more (raw amount and rate) to the society than the wealthy.

UBI is just an excuse to do the real fix, and that's tax the wealthy and the corporations their fair share.
It's ridiculous my tax rate is over 30% while wealthy people has it at 15%, and Amazon has it at 0%. That's the real problem! Yang wants to give people #1kBro so they can shut up about the real issue here is tax fairness.

I still know people who love Instagram or WhatsApp but they hate Facebook. Little do they know both apps are owned by Facebook, and that's the problem Facebook keeps acquiring their threats, their competitors that's monopoly and seriously they're dangerous. Many people still don't know YouTube is owned by Google. This is a problem!
