Thomas Jefferson and basic income.

''We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed, by their Creator, with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.  I was inspired by the English man, John Locke, who said that our rights involve life, liberty, health and government.   

That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, as noted by Rousseau,  That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.  At the present time, such principles in organising its powers in such form as to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness makes basic income a requisite in the industrial and automated world so that all men who are created equal can enjoy the unalienable rights with which they are endowed.   But, with your trust in Conway Twitty  alone and he is very good , you are still campaigning and preparing for an election instead of relying on suggestions from people who may have more breadth to help you see your on going campaign is not independent of some tangible policy platforms that must outlive your one chance to help these ignorant indentured Americans that I love dearly but who believe resisting the common and great  power of the people vested in   their common government is a sport. Maybe Conway Twitty is cut from the cloth of these people and the answer renders the sport redundant since '..isn't the government supposed to show up with Custer and shoot my grandmother?'; she asks.  Maybe they need a pain acknowledged first. and Last Samurai(the movie) is not enough.  You also must see that not every police officer is a graduate although he stole a graduate's shaver. and is wearing his blue suit.   You cannot  rely on  just the support of people who need to feel someone screaming at logic and screaming at the   the emotional hindrances of  indentured servitude legacies  with them and for them and who do not want to understand the solution if or when it requires another government involvement in their lives. How dare they, they ask,  give me money to eat, thrive and start a rabbit or bison BBQ. How dare they, you ask, try to assimilate us and  give us any rules to follow or suggestions on how to dress or how to cook when the independence most of us desired secretly was to walk in skins again with bow and arrow.  Work was good since it respected my need to feel some independence of this great intrusion on our world and when work is not available due to automation, we would rather return to living off the land if we could  since it agrees with the emotion that cries for independence from this cultural intrusion that began in 1498 approximately  but yet we accept that living off the land is not economically viable for our mutual benefit and we are fully assimilated  to 1 minute burger orders, hot and cold running water  as we build houses and Papa John's or Little Caesar 's 5 minutes or fresh pizza is just brilliant really  and we need the money for gasoline and football games and shampoo and the rent  or mortgages we must pay. no; the mortgage is paid off. In fact a basic income race instead of an arms race is a better idea in defending our civil liberties and way of life at home and abroad since what is liberty if people are not safe and secure in the evident job attrition and resultant human attrition  caused by  automated labour.    In all sincerity and  genuine ignorance, we represent our own evils in this highly technological era and may desire secretly to shuffle off this technological and information dependent future coil in our self- imposed tyranny of ignorance.   

Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed and what more can we suffer after the unemployment caused by government funded industrial automation with robotic labor and the absence of mass basic income per citizen as funded by the Federal government.  The state's could run their own basic income policies and they may not be consistent as to qualification.  In Kansas, you have to have a family. Yet, basic income after high school would help you feel good so that you might have a date to start a family and if families is what you want to promote with leverage, increase the basic income available for those that have a spouse and increase it again for every child they have. The gap between the unemployment caused by the attritious affects of automation and basic income is called the Grey. See the movie where our mutual son called a civil war  that is nasty brutish and short comes like a pack of wolves and you suffer also the attritious affect of a society in economic desperation with people  on the edge of economic survival  for too long.     But, there is need for  an unconditional basic income policy in keeping with the methods used in Europe which is unconditional.       But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.”
