I think rural America should get a basic income at this point
Rural America is getting sh**ttier every year and if someone dosent do something about it soon, these people will vote us into the stone age with them
Please. Just stop...
What? This is a serious proposal. Rural America has been dying economically for 40 years and it get's worse every year. That's part of the reason they voted for a demagogue like Trump. They should get a basic income or a negative income tax return otherwise they will start to hold the country back due to resentment at being ignored
I think the Democrats should introduce a proposal to provide a basic income for those "ruined by globalization" It will win them votes and not make rural voters feel like their taking a handout
Most of the towns that are the subject of the article did not vote for Trump....
