Frustration with how little conventional politicians have done to address the onslaught from the next wave of technological disruption drove Yang into the presidential race. It’s a phenomenon he describes at length in his book, “The War on Normal People.” He says: “Donald Trump in 2016 said he was going to make America great again, and what was Hillary Clinton’s response? America’s already great,” adding, “That was not the right answer.” In Yang’s view, the right answer is a permanent stimulus routed through the pockets of every American to help them build a post-automation economy.

His belief is that, eventually, an American working class told to accept an ever-reduced standard of living — while the corporate beneficiaries of our system show indifference toward the despair, suicide, alcoholism and opiate abuse afflicting those left behind — could lash out with a fury that makes Trump look like a mild precursor. When Yang explains that “Trump got many of the problems right,” even if the president gets many solutions wrong, it is this dynamic he has in mind, and it is this economic wound that he proposes to heal with UBI and a raft of other policies focused on rescuing Americans from the zero-sum “mind-set of scarcity” currently deranging our politics.

Yang has somehow used the bleakest vision of any candidate to generate the most fun of all the campaigns: He has tweeted video of himself playing Rachmaninoff on the piano, skateboarded, crowd-surfed, done the Cupid Shuffle and challenged Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.) to a game of one-on-one basketball. The #YangGang calls out instances when their candidate is left off mainstream media infographics — neglect that only feeds their ardor. They love it when he revels in his underdog status, as he did when he tweeted, “It’s all fun and games until Andrew Yang passes you in the polls.”

Yang has cracked the code on how to be something that doesn’t have much precedent in our political culture: an Asian American man able to summon and inspire large, enthusiastic crowds across the country in support of his bid for national leadership, charismatic enough to commandeer a spotlight that no one had wanted to train on him. After interviewing him, Politico senior politics editor Charlie Mahtesian tweeted: “Yang was much better than some of the veteran pols we’ve seen before in the office — easy to see why he’s got a following. Authentic, comfortable in his own skin, able to articulate a coherent reason for running, minimal amount of b.s. in answers to a wide range of questions.” (Two other Democratic contenders, Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (Hawaii) and Sen. Kamala Harris (Calif.), have Asian roots but don’t conspicuously frame themselves as Asian American candidates.)

It turns out that being this figure doesn’t entail being a scold about race. As Yang brought his Asian jokes to the televised debates (there’s also the one about knowing a lot of doctors), some Asian American progressives took him to task for embracing a facially positive stereotype that, in their view, is “reaffirming toxic tropes” and traps Asian Americans within a “model minority” framing. These critics were voicing the general strictness on matters of identity to which we are all supposed to defer these days. This month, Yang met with some of them and explained that while he respected and understood their objections, he sees it differently. And he’s not an outlier: In one 2018 study, when asked if people nowadays “don’t take racism seriously enough” or if they’re “too sensitive about things to do with race,” 73 percent of Asian Americans said people are “too sensitive,” more than the 60 percent overall who said the same.

The criticisms fundamentally miss Yang’s objectives. His humor breaks the ice surrounding the first thing you notice about him — and the thing audiences are least prepared to parse. It has the paradoxical effect of highlighting how few of the identity-based hopes or antagonisms plaguing other candidacies affect the Asian American guy “who wants to give everyone $1,000 a month.” Asian Americans, only about 6 percent of the population and heavily clustered in a few states, are often overlooked as a group. But given the overheated rhetoric surrounding other identity categories, for Yang, this lack of visibility could turn out to be a strength.

In the hierarchy of the schoolyard, the Andrew Yangs of the world were often the quarry of white bros like podcaster and “Saturday Night Live” washout Shane Gillis. But in the world run by Big Data, it’s Yang who is the New York millionaire with ties to Silicon Valley. When Yang forgave Gillis for mocking him as a “Jew C----,” it wasn’t just out of electoral expediency (though it was that, too) but because he believes that the key to stability between America’s hinterlands and urban areas, to averting the civil disorder he spells out in his book, is a truce. After watching Gillis’s comedy, Yang decided he wasn’t the evil pariah that the progressive consensus assessed but instead “a still-forming comedian from central Pennsylvania.” This magnanimity isn’t a capitulation, it’s a sign of strength.

Yang grasps that, despite the grievances many Asian Americans justifiably hold about discrimination, members of the best-educated and highest-earning group in America shouldn’t linger on victimhood.

You are right ubi is not a panacea, it is a floor to build upon with other policies.

This is why yang has 130+ on his website that DO actually attack inequalities and inefficiencies in our system one by one. Yang focuses on the FD because it is the easiest thing to do in a single term as president -- It doesn't require a supermajority in the house and has bipartisan appeal, making it incredibly easy to implement quickly.


And ubi does help in certain things like unionizing which DO help with inequalities, collective bargaining is one of the greatest tools available to the precariat and is something that is much easier to accomplish when you don't have to ever worry about starving to death.

You can read the book Raising The Floor by Andy Stern to learn more about it, he is the former president of one of the largest unions in the entire country the SEIU.

Please take a look at the book Doctor Yourself with research-based solutions, it has the numbers on health that you're looking for. My wife and I have great blood results from it and I think it may significantly affect your health policies.

It will be very interesting (and sad) if people on the right let partisanship get in the way of solutions if Yang does start polling even higher or becomes the Dem nominee. The Daily Wire (a conservative site) has this: https://www.dailywire.com/news/48858/where-does-andrew-yang-stand-issues-heres-josh-hammer

> Yang's call for a more worker-centric approach to capitalism makes him a possible ally of some more populist-oriented economic thinkers on the American Right, such as Tucker Carlson and Oren Cass.

These guys on the populist right seem like they would and should be open to/supportive of Yang's ideas. But then again, it's possible it's they might not be as populist as they claim. Salon (far left site) has this to say about Cass's book:

https://www.salon.com/2018/12/01/the-once-and-future-worker-is-romney-loyalist-oren-casss-labor-theory-of-value/

>Conversely, Cass’s core reform proposals range from politically impossible overhauls of labor and environmental law, to supply-side wage subsidies and regulatory reforms that are barely differentiable from the Zombie Reaganism he set out to transcend. If conservative populists are to win out over the racist culture warriors, they’ll have to do better.

I was once a Mormon missionary who rode a bike to get around for two years. Since I was always in a suit or wearing dress slacks, I bought one of these to keep my right pant out of the chain:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00L2AF1Z6

It was a great buy. I stopped tearing up my pants on the chain and gear.

Alternatively, folding the pant tight around the leg and then tucking it into my sock was effective for short distances.

Universal Birthright, the moral world view needed to share the natural resources of the land. Check out Hard Seed for how this can justify and pay for a truly sustainable civilization.

I hope you find that relevant enough, but the ex-trader now writer Chris Arnade (@Chris_arnade) just released a book that speaks exactly to this issue.

Here are two comment thread about that book that I liked a lot :

Great book. link

This book aligns pretty closely with Yang's approach to bettering our country (Its a good read/listen). Tucker's exchange with the author shows his true colors when the rubber meets the road. Misdirected outrage and anti-intellectualism is not a true salve for what ails the average American worker. Here is Tucker getting frustrated.

Sometimes technology and trade is intertwined. For a subset of the story a book I liked is “The Box”. Container shipping (new tech) was fought against by unionized dock workers. They later compromised by the shipping companies setting aside some cost savings for a pension.
Container shipping lowered the cost of shipping such that massive global trade became possible.

If US can be automated. So can China. So really it’s all intertwined.

Two more questions. When we switched from a agrarian society to industrial society. Was it peaceful? Why do we have Labor Day?

Last question, why is Trump in office?

My bumper is probably not magnetic, but I'll put a couple on magnetic sheets so I can move them around my car just for the heck of it. Easy to remove so I can store it away if some jerk wants to steal them.


Here's one I'll get, which should be able to fit six bumper stickers. (non-affiliate link)

>because single payer is ultimately the only way to preserve healthcare costs.

Doesn't he have plans to reduce healthcare costs?

Anyway, my stance is healthcare costs are being driven up by two things.

The non-evidence based nutritional guidelines that we have, and it seems the more we follow those guidelines the worse people do in regard to obesity, metabolic disease, and diabetes. Some of these guidelines actually have roots in religion rather than science. And even though we may not consciously follow the guidelines, food manufacturers will want to stay within the guidelines to reach the most customers. So you end up following the guidelines whether you want to or not... As pointed out by Nina Teicholz:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJEHiQKqfZM

The other problem is that the FDA is way more strict then the European counter parts which drives up research costs and the amount of time in which drugs are approved which ends up reflected in the costs of the drugs in the US. And the FDA is way too powerful and in many respects corrupt (they have punished pharmaceuticals in the past who have pointed out practices of bribery, by delaying processing of their drug approval). And not to mention going by the numbers the FDA has incidentally killed lots of terminal ill patients who had a hard time getting access to experimental drugs that would save or extend their lives, since pharma doesn't want to risk delaying approval by the FDA by trying to help them. As Mary Ruwart points out in her book:

Part 2 of 3:

Yang is a kind of defector from the knowledge-worker class he once epitomized as an Ivy League-educated corporate lawyer and chief executive of a test-prep company. The seven years he spent building a nonprofit called Venture for America, matching graduates of top colleges with start-ups in Rust Belt cities, made him acutely conscious of both the injury that his cohort has done (and is working tirelessly to expand) in the service of corporate America, and the volatile reaction this injury has stirred up. His campaign is an attempt to fashion a technocratic response to populist demands — by simply giving people money. The overt emphasis on being an Asian American math nerd frames his signature policy, a universal basic income (UBI) of $1,000 per month for every American adult, as a responsible, sober-minded and data-driven measure to “rebalance the economy,” rather than the giveaway it looks like. The core mission of Yang’s campaign is to get people to see UBI, which he calls the “Freedom Dividend,” as the former rather than the latter, and he’s exploiting every angle he can — including stereotypes — toward that end.

Frustration with how little conventional politicians have done to address the onslaught from the next wave of technological disruption drove Yang into the presidential race. It’s a phenomenon he describes at length in his book, “The War on Normal People.” He says: “Donald Trump in 2016 said he was going to make America great again, and what was Hillary Clinton’s response? America’s already great,” adding, “That was not the right answer.” In Yang’s view, the right answer is a permanent stimulus routed through the pockets of every American to help them build a post-automation economy.

His belief is that, eventually, an American working class told to accept an ever-reduced standard of living — while the corporate beneficiaries of our system show indifference toward the despair, suicide, alcoholism and opiate abuse afflicting those left behind — could lash out with a fury that makes Trump look like a mild precursor. When Yang explains that “Trump got many of the problems right,” even if the president gets many solutions wrong, it is this dynamic he has in mind, and it is this economic wound that he proposes to heal with UBI and a raft of other policies focused on rescuing Americans from the zero-sum “mind-set of scarcity” currently deranging our politics.
