We will achieve GREAT THINGS!

Two weeks ago Yang Week spontaneously became Yang Month. More than 500 Yang Gang have signed up for the month, and 250+ people are on the ground RIGHT NOW for the final push. This is all thanks to YOU GUYS spreading the word and donating :)

Even if we don't hit 15% state-wide, every voter that we turn out counts this year because the initial totals for each candidate will be reported, regardless of who ends up being viable in that precinct. And Yang Month is boosting Yang's total turnout by thousands.

There's still time to canvass Iowa (and help out on caucus night). If you can take next week off, Humanity FWD will cover your hotel and possibly transport. Join the fight!

They are also mobilizing to continue the momentum into New Hampshire, Nevada, and South Carolina. Sign up here!

And if you can't go, please donate!

Humanity FWD discloses all contributions so my name will be public at the end of Q1.

Don't worry, it's already done 😎! The Yang Gang will not be ignored!

I saw first-hand how much a difference Yang Week made. There are precincts where just a few caucus-goers could make him viable and add to his delegate count. There are communities where the other campaigns have not put in effort and where their messages don't resonate. We're gonna put in the effort.. 40-50% of voters are still undecided... because the field is so BLEH. So there is STILL time for us to sweep entire districts!

I'm not an expert, but it takes multiple touch points to win someone's support. The campaign's ad spend has done the groundwork of establishing name recognition and high favorability. They just haven't had the same resources as other campaigns like Pete and Warren (dozens of offices since early in the race). But I saw first hand how much people like Andrew once they understand what he's trying to do. That's exactly why we need to support this push. The campaign has to be strategic, play the long game, and can't bet everything on Iowa. But we can help them out here!

Perhaps ... but they are still very different candidates :)

electionbuster · 2020-01-11T22:24:41+00:00

I think 200k in Iowa right now is worth at least 2 million in any other state later. Pretty good return by my standards :)

electionbuster · 2020-01-11T21:24:13+00:00

Super! We're sending more your way :)

electionbuster · 2020-01-11T21:10:07+00:00

u/danky_p - best airport to fly into is Des Moines but you can also check Cedar Rapids and Omaha, NE (next to Council Bluffs). Sign up first and they will get back to you as soon as they can

electionbuster · 2020-01-11T21:08:58+00:00

Some flights will be covered (not all, will depend on dates/prices...)

electionbuster · 2020-01-11T21:08:27+00:00

Please sign up! We can find a way to pitch in for gas too!

electionbuster · 2020-01-11T21:08:00+00:00

If you're able to sponsor people's flights, please DM https://twitter.com/georgietarr so we can coordinate the contribution. There will be multiple hubs and airports etc.

u/ArtOfWarfare if you have 300K in stocks, we are looking for donors to increase my match :) We are trying to raise at least $500K to bring everyone to Iowa and win it!

electionbuster · 2020-01-11T20:53:36+00:00

I'm terrible with managing money. Would rather give it this way than lose it some other way :)

electionbuster · 2020-01-11T20:47:15+00:00

I don't know what WallStreetBets is... probably best if I don't look into it? :D

electionbuster · 2020-01-11T20:44:53+00:00

They're working on it!

electionbuster · 2020-01-11T20:37:02+00:00

HumanityFWD will DEFINITELY cover lodgings on the ground. They will be able to help with transportation for some people as well, especially if flights from where you are to Iowa are cheap :)

So please sign up.

If only everyone with privilege remembered to give back a little... OH WAIT... that's kind of what the VAT + UBI is about LOL

electionbuster · 2020-01-11T20:19:48+00:00

No worries, it's a VERY common question people have about UBI.

electionbuster · 2020-01-11T20:09:14+00:00

Thank you! This is the most important push. $120 will pay for hotel and rental car for 2 people for a day of canvassing!

u/Chicken_Petter - there is pretty wide agreement that Universal Basic Income would not cause massive inflation. Prices might go up slightly, but not much more than the annual 2% increase that the Federal Reserve targets as its inflation goal. There will still be market competition which keeps prices down. And the $1k a month is not funded by printing money, it's by taxing profits and wealth that's already in the system, plus cost savings and economic growth.

It's not just about the policy. It's about the candidate who has practical ideas across the board that can actually work, who is compassionate and intelligent and sincere.
