FLINT—Eight days after entering the world, Khi’Meir Taylor made another debut — this time in what could be a national spotlight.
Wednesday was the first day of a $55 million experiment to test whether cash payments can protect children from the toxic stress of poverty.
We don’t allow the whole community to attend social studies class, we don’t allow people to farm in the park., and the fire department doesn’t save people when there isn’t an emergency. Your libertine conception of UBI has no parallel in any public service. There’s always terms and conditions and stipulations and regulations and oversight and overhead.

Honey, you and all UBIniks just frame “the fire department helps everyone” in a dishonest way to support y’all’s point.
In reality, the fire department doesn’t help you unless there is a fire. It’s there if you need it, there isn’t a firefighter in your house right now just waiting for a fire to happen. You don’t need one, so you don’t get one. They’ll come when you need them and not until then.
In fact, in most places you would get in trouble if you repeatedly lied to the fire department to get them to show up. Why is that?
