    Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer plans to retire, paving the way for Biden pick.
    CBS News (Moderate Left) • Factual Grade 80% • 6 min read

    Multiple sources, including two White House officials and a senior Democratic congressional staffer, confirmed Breyer's intention to step down. The move comes after a months-long campaign from progressives urging him to retire and allow the president to name a successor while Democrats hold a slim majority in the Senate.
    ...
    It's unclear how quickly Mr. Biden will move to nominate a replacement for Breyer. Unlike his predecessor, Mr. Biden declined to release a list of possible Supreme Court contenders. The president has repeatedly vowed that if a vacancy on the high court were to arise during his presidency, he would name the Supreme Court's first Black woman justice.
    ...
    Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, tapped by Mr. Biden to the influential U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, is considered to be a top contender for the Supreme Court. Jackson was confirmed to the D.C. Circuit in June with support from three Republicans. California Supreme Court Justice Leondra Kruger is also considered a frontrunner.

Are unconditional cash payments for the poor better than means-tested payments?

328 votes, 34 comments

Context: Study indicates infants in families receiving more income have higher levels of brain activity.

HIGHLIGHTED COMMENTS

No - If they are "unconditional cash payments for the poor" you have to have a definition of poor, if you have a definition of poor you place a limit on means and it is thus means-tested. [...] I don't think we should just throw payments at people even with means-testing. I believe social welfare should be a tool to help someone get on their proverbial feet not a permanent crutch allowing them to continue on with no change but fewer consequences. [...] Only in cases where change is not possible/feasible, such as people with severe physical or mental disability, should these payments be permanent.


Yes - This is the beauty of UBI, universal basic income. Give everyone $1000 per month or so and let ...



No - In general, I don’t think that cash payments do more than enable people living below their abilities. But if cash payments are to be made, it ...
