A British take on Andrew Yang - Can you trust this Tech Millionaire?
Andrew Yang has come out of nowhere to get a place (reach the threshold for) in the Democratic Party's debates later this year. Yang's main unique policy is his push for a Universal Basic Income - giving everyone $1000 a month regardless of their income - to alleviate various grievances currenlty in the US system. He also has many common sense domestic policies outlined on his website. He chief concern is what will happen to America when automation takes over many low skilled jobs.
However there are some concerns. Yang doesn't have any political track record on things like prison reform, tackling climate change or rallying against generic US foreign policy. Lately he has also been actively courting the right wing and pushing some alt-right style talking points which is very concerning.
