I seem to remember regular Americans and small businesses getting billions while corporate America got trillions.

Give a man a fish, etc. Give a man money for doing nothing and you encourage indolence and promote a culture of helplessness.

Alaska is one of the Red-est states in the Union; I lived there for 13 years. Hunters, oil field roughnecks, survivalists and many like-minded individuals.
They all receive (once they prove state residence) Alaska’s Permanent Fund Dividend once per year. Going back the last 10 years, the payment has been between $1000 and $2000 dollars – hardly enough to live on.
Why is Hilary using the Alaska model as the model for UBI?

The author misses the point that both the old-style welfare system and the desire to “mobilize groups of people for political objectives” are no longer effective or feasible.
The welfare systems of old categorized imagined typical people-in-need and served their imagined needs. But very few actually fit the mold, so everyone was gaming the system; it got pretty comical over the years.
And mobilizing groups of people for political objectives just doesn’t work too well anymore. The powers-that-be have learned to sidestep and ignore protests. And boycotts interfere with our favorite passtime; shopping. So only the few objectives that the activists, the powers-that-be and half of the politicians all agree on (climate change, Black lives, vaccines, etc.) get any attention. For instance, everyone’s big on Black lives but no one really talks about police reform. So the police keep killing people but no one bothers to wonder how many non-Black people wind up that way. As long as the issue comes down to race we can expect the same old result; no change, continued carnage.
