[Pen-l] Sandwichman's KEYNESIAN stimulus plan

[Sandwichman <lumpoflabor@xxxxxxxxx>]

The concept of the Sandwichman's stimulus plan is extremely simple: a
basic income guarantee of $145.68 a week combined with a voluntary
annual cap on hours of work at 1,600 hours. The rationale for this
approach is that this is not your grandfather's depression. The nature
of work has changed. It is not feasible to continue treating the
environment as if it was an economic "externality". Historical
evidence and real economic theory (as opposed to textbook lore)
support the strategy outlined in the Sandwichman plan.

12.5 million jobs for $1 trillion.
