If you are arguing for a Universal Basic Income, here’s what your opponent believes but will never say.

Bit of wish fulfillment for UBI proponents and anti workers tired of the gassing. Also serves as a bit of a primer. You’re not crazy. Get after it!

I was a security officer at an impound lot and processed repossessed cars. Ask me anything.

I might have had the worst job ever. I was a security officer at an impound lot where they brought all the repo'd vehicles. I processed all incoming cars and processed all outgoing cars while dealing with the “customers” face to face. I was attacked on multiple occasions verbally and physically, had guns pulled on me and was followed home by whole families of enraged lunatics for $11hr I am prepared to share these stories, just ask.
