**XT** ’s thread, [Just Give Them the Money (the argument for basic income)](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=751371) has been extraordinarily fruitful the past day. At various times, the following combos have appeared:

**Economist says awesome things about Sanders’s economic plan**

**Just Give Them the Money (the argument for basic income)**

Straightforward economic re-distribution - but what would you expect from a Socialist like Bernie, anyway?  
And then there was just the opposite:

**IS Wall Street the main cause of U.S. income/wealth inequality?**

**Just Give Them the Money (the argument for basic income)**

Bail-out the banks whenever needed!  
And finally, a nugget that would warm the cockles of Jeb!'s plutocratic heart:

**If money is speech, and speech is money…**

**Just Give Them the Money (the argument for basic income)**

_Citizens United_ lives!  
Really, **XT** ’s thread works with pretty much anything!
