In a country like Canada, everyone should have the ability to keep a roof over their heads and meet their basic needs.
It's time for a national conversation about a basic income, and I want our government to lead that conversation. #BasicIncome #cdnpoli

This is such a simple concept. The earth belongs to everyone and so do the sun, the air and the water. We applaud those who improve on these and earn the fruit of their labor. But they don't own these resources, we all do - and we have to be remunerated. That's UBI.

Wow. A universal basic income (guaranteed annual income) was what my father recommended as a primary way to eradicate poverty. This is a powerful step forward. #MLK @MichaelDTubbs @AndrewYang
Mayors in L.A. and 6 other U.S. cities said they will work to launch universal basic income pilot programs—a growing sign that political leaders are beginning to take the idea of guaranteed income seriously in the wake of the pandemic on.forbes.com/6012GOCw0 by @rachsandl

"When these jobs start disappearing, we need new industries, we need to build foundations that will help. Maybe it’s universal basic income, but we need to create a financial cushion for those who are left behind."—Garry Kasparov

I have long believed that UBI would help address generational poverty. When @AndrewYang entered the race, I was encouraged to see him elevate this on the national stage.
Though no longer running, I am glad that he encouraged us all to think again. Respect to the gang.

I appreciate the way Andrew lifted up the idea of a basic income and talked about the brutal nature of our economy on people and humanity. I never thought we were launched our basic income pilot in 2017, that a Presidential candidate would be talking about the concept.

I'll continue to carry this torch of Universal Basic Income that will re-invigorate our middle class and those struggling just to make ends meet, bridge the income gap and unleash an era of entrepreneurship and productivity. (2/3)

Okay, #YangGang, let's do this. For those looking to stay involved and keep pushing for UBI alongside me by lending their talents and skills they wish to volunteer, I've just created a discord. Let's figure this shit out together as we go.

Really sad Andrew is dropping out. He’s an incredibly authentic person who was focused on solving the big existential problems facing the world. Thank you Andrew for bringing universal basic income back into the national conversation. It’s well overdue. #yanggangforever

You ran a great race, @AndrewYang. Your campaign focused on the future, and looked like you were having a lot of fun doing it. Thank you for bringing up ideas like UBI and opening a discourse on how we better value undervalued work like caregiving.

"UBI will win eventually… The struggle doesn’t end until justice wins. Justice doesn’t win until the privileged stop telling the poor what to do so we can end the powerlessness that makes so many people in the world weak, vulnerable, and marginalized."

Universal basic income may sound like science fiction, but it's no fantasy. It's a floor on which to stand, an inheritance we're owed, a share in our society, a dividend that pays through our whole lives...

"Why not have one universal basic subsidy that covers everything (perhaps except health and education) and let people decide how they will spend it, rather than trying to target subsidies based on our imperfect knowledge of what people need and deserve?”
