Obama supports single-issue voters. Great idea for basic income activists.

Obama on minimum wage

"If your member of Congress doesn’t support raising the minimum wage, you’ve got to let them know they’re out of step, and that if they keep putting politics ahead of working Americans, you’ll put them out of office."

Activists pushing for an unconditional basic income or a citizen dividend should seriously consider forming single-issue voting blocks.

The beauty of BIG single-issue voters.

"FORGET EVERYTHING ELSE, 

WE JUST WANT A BASIC INCOME."

"If your member of Congress/Senate/Parliament/whatever doesn’t support a citizen dividend / unconditional basic income, you’ve got to let them know they’re out of step, and that if they keep putting politics ahead of working Americans/British/Koreans/Chinese/whatever, you’ll put them out of office."
