Reply #16: That's The Open Question

[ProfessorGAC]

I didn't say one way or the other. What i am ASKING is whether the upside for the least among us is superior to the downside.

I admit i'm leaning toward yes, and i haven't seen any data either way. But, i do know that anything that stretches the dispensible income of those with the least of it is inherently a good thing. Even if just for that one family, or a hundred families. The broader and longer term impact is where the downside exists, and i don't know if the downside is worse than the upside.

It's why i said i shared the moral conflict brought up earlier.
