This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

Anon is often crazy.
Anon is often depressed.
Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

love random comments dismissing potentially good policy because "in my country" which you didnt name, it doesn't work

what kind of fucking scientist says "huh that attempt didn't work i guess it never will"?

You're not even going to tell us what country it is so we can see? probably not, because it is probably a shitty comparison.

and for the record, parent comment was downvoted because it's fucking stupid. there's no UBI in this post. it's as if i take a day off and go to the park and say "Hmpf this is why UBI doesnt work!" like what the fuck are you talking about, UBI is not just when lazy day. the only thing that could make this post dumber would be calling me triggered for pointing out how dumb it is

We also do know how this supposed UBI was implemeted and by which metric it did not work.
