[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Jawando is all about policy that sounds good and nothing about understanding how to make the trains run. So tired of his rhetoric and damaging legislation.[/quote] There is nothing about UBI that “sounds good.”[/quote] It sounds great to the upper income women of SSJC and JUFJ who want to be seen as the penultimate anti-racists. When the county has to choose between funding this or something else in the HHS budget, like the supplement they provide to developmental disability providers (direct care workers), they won’t care one whit. Because helping the people who help our most fragile isn’t as sexy and headline grabbing as the trending UBI discussion. I mean, HHS is forbidden from filling jobs to save about $8 million every year. The county already lacks sufficient tax revenue to deliver identified services. They discuss this year after year and how it impacts departmental performance. [/quote]
