Brief description of the political platform issues:
1. Universal
Basic Income
(UBI)
:
1.1
Overview of Universal Basic Income:
Universal Basic Income
(UBI) , universal free basic health insurance, unconditionally available to all New Yorkers at $
33 per person per day
, from the day of birth to the day of death.
Universal Basic Income, also known as Unconditional Basic Income , is an unconditional direct payment to all New Yorkers. Every New Yorker receives this fixed amount on a regular basis, regardless of whether they have a job, income, or other conditions. The amount is based on the poverty line as the main reference and takes into account the actual ability of the society. This income provides people with basic economic security and stability and meets their basic living needs. Every New Yorker has it, so that there will be no people below the poverty line in New York, ensuring that every New Yorker has enough money to meet their basic needs. . The money of all New Yorkers is divided into two parts. The first is basic living needs, which comes from the universal basic income distributed every day. It is the same for everyone. The other is the additional part to meet basic living needs, because individuals have different earning situations. And different. Human life is divided into basic life and enjoyment life. The former is guaranteed by the universal basic income, and the latter is earned by oneself. Basic medical care is the basic guarantee for modern people's survival, and every New Yorker must have it.
1.2
Sources of funds for universal basic income
:
New York State has a population of 20 million, an annual GDP
of US$2 trillion, a per capita annual GDP of US$100,000, and a per capita personal income of US $ 75,000 per year ( US$ 6,250 per month ) ( https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/NYNGSP ,
https ://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economy_of_New_York_(state) .
New York has the largest political and economic advantages in the world, and the greatest development capabilities and potential. Universal Basic Income ( UBI ) and universal free basic medical insurance can
be achieved with New York's current capabilities. New York's UBI will become an independent plan and will not use other existing funds. However, after the implementation of UBI , it will release huge energy for prosperity and development and save a lot of money in other areas. New York will fundamentally change and enter a new era!
1.3
Analysis
To make an analysis and metaphor based on the actual situation, if the poverty line of a social community is $1,000 per person per month , half of the people in the community have no income, and the other half of the people have a monthly income of $2,000 per person. If all personal income is collected, then each person per month If you pay $1,000 , there will be no needy people, and the funds will be balanced, but this is egalitarianism, so most people will be unwilling to work. Anyway, they will get $1,000 a month whether they work or not , and society will decline. But the current situation in New York is that the per capita personal income is $6,250 per month . As an analogy, suppose half of the people have no job and no income, and the other half of the people earn $12,500 per month . From the half of the people who earn $ 12,500
per month,
$2,000 is collected per month . All New Yorkers will be given $1,000 per month per person. The amount of funds is balanced. People without income will receive a net $1,000 per month from the universal basic income , and their total income will also be $1,000 per month ; those with a monthly income of $12,500 per person will receive Each person pays $2,000 per month, and each person receives $1,000 per month from the universal basic income . The net income per person per month is $11,500 ( $12,500-$2,000+$1,000 ). Under such circumstances, the entire New York funds are balanced and guaranteed. No monthly income in
People whose income is less than $1,000
means that there are no poor people living below the poverty line in New York. At the same time, the actual monthly income of a person who earns $12,500 per month is $11,500,
which is reasonable and acceptable. A person who actually earns $11,500 per month at work will not stop working just to get $1,000 , and it will not affect people’s enthusiasm for work. On the contrary, it will stimulate people to work harder and create wealth (that is, for every $1 earned,
they will receive $0.84) . A person who makes no money at all gets $1,000 per month from the UBI plan . With life security, the actual income of a person who makes $100 a month is $1,084 per month . The actual income of different income earners before and after
UBI is shown in Figure 1 , and New York’s GDP is shown in Figure 2 .

Seasonally Adjusted Annual Rate
1.4 UBI
has many benefits and has a great positive impact on society
:
UBI reduces socioeconomic inequality and provides basic economic security, fairness and equality of opportunity, allowing everyone to have the opportunity to pursue their potential. Giving people a bottom line of economic security can encourage people to boldly invest in entrepreneurship and innovation, reducing or even eliminating worries about being unable to live due to investment failure, because they are no longer completely dependent on traditional salaried jobs. Compared with some social welfare programs, UBI is simpler to operate, reducing a lot of administrative overhead and complex eligibility checks. Because everyone has an unconditionally guaranteed basic income, UBI
provides conditions for tax cuts in other areas.
1.5 UBI
provides better conditions for social development
:
If a basic income of 33 yuan per person per day is provided unconditionally, people will not give up jobs that make more money, and people's instinct to pursue unlimited wealth will not disappear because of UBI . Because of the disappearance of poverty throughout New York, the entire society has been fundamentally changed. Security is guaranteed, science, technology and productivity are further developed, new wealth is created in greater quantities, various resources are comprehensively and rationally integrated, and the overall development of society is improved. At the same time, New York has the greatest political and economic advantages in the world and the greatest development potential. Under the guarantee of universal basic income, concerns about modern technology, including artificial intelligence, replacing people's job opportunities are eliminated, giving social development a greater impetus.
Universal basic income allows more people to be willing to do volunteer or low-cost work.
1.6
Efficiency and fairness
:
Under the current social welfare system, no matter how the rich are excluded, no matter what the asset review system is, there will always be problems with the subsidy threshold and the poverty trap effect. Or many people do not know how to apply for subsidies, or the process is too complicated, or they do not know whether they are eligible. Eligibility, or unwillingness to apply for poverty subsidies out of personal reasons, or allowing those who do not need or are not eligible to receive subsidies, so that those who really need cannot receive assistance, thus leading to welfare fraud, administrative bureaucracy, corruption and waste of resources, etc. question. Sponsored groups may also be labeled, discriminated against and questioned. The universal basic income here is not welfare, not reducing the gap between rich and poor, not protecting a certain group, but ensuring everyone's basic survival needs. UBI is not egalitarian, it is effective, reasonable, and now realistic, and New York can and needs to achieve it.
1.7
There are more reasons to implement UBI
:
The reason why UBI is needed is also that New York’s main resources are shared by New Yorkers, such as rivers, sunshine, air, and seawater, and public expenses incurred by people, such as sewage, should be borne jointly. With the current strong productivity, it is necessary and achievable to ensure that every New Yorker has a basic income to ensure basic living. Since ancient times, universal payment has always existed. For example, for the use of public facilities and roads, the government spends money, but users do not pay.
As early as 46 BC, the ancient Roman consul Julius Caesar ( Gaius Julius Caesar )
began to provide living expenses to all Roman citizens . In 1516, the British philosopher and statesman
Thomas More formally proposed guaranteed basic income . A large number of attempts have been made around the world. Finland launched the UBI experiment in 2017 , which was the first time that it was transformed from an idea into a basic income at the national level. Policy (randomly select 2,000 unemployed people and receive 560 euros per month for two years); In the 2020 US presidential election,
Andrew Yang made UBI the core content of his political platform.
1.8
The most thorough way to fundamentally solve the current problem
:
Universal basic income is the most effective and thorough way for New York to fundamentally solve the current problems. It is the best choice and the most beneficial to the people and society. Moreover, New York is now fully capable and can implement it. New York took the lead in realizing universal basic income, and then implemented it in surrounding areas, including New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, etc., and finally the entire United States realized universal basic income.
1.9
Another analysis of UBI funding:
The poor and low-income people in New York now receive various welfare subsidies from the government, many of which exceed US$ 1,000
per month
. For the non-poor but the ordinary class (for example, the per capita income is about $6,250 ), even if US$ 1,000 is collected and US$ 1,000 is sent back , the government’s expenditures will not increase and the personal income will not decrease. If a basic income of $ 33 per person per day is provided unconditionally , people will not give up jobs that earn more money. Because of the disappearance of poverty throughout New York, the entire society has been fundamentally changed. Security is guaranteed, science, technology and productivity have developed further, new wealth has been created in greater quantities, various resources have been comprehensively and rationally integrated, and the overall development of society has improved. New York has the world's largest political and economic advantages and the greatest development potential .
Universal basic income and universal free basic medical insurance can be achieved with New York's current capabilities.
2.
Zero poverty (poverty elimination)
:
The poverty line in the United States is approximately $33/ day / person, and universal basic income is paid to each person at $ 33 /day , completely eliminating poverty. With universal basic income, there will be no people below the poverty line in New York ,
which will make it possible to zero out all the problems caused by poverty, including crime, theft, money owed, vagrants, homelessness, etc. caused by poverty. Psychological and mental illness, etc. In 2021
, the updated poverty line in New York City based on inflation is: $13,788 for one person and $27,740 for a family of four
($6935/ person ) . One person needs approximately
$1149 per month , and a family of four needs
$577 per person per month .
By implementing a universal basic income of $33 per person per day ( $990/ month / person) and encouraging families to live together, zero poverty has been achieved. From then on, there are no poor people or low-income people in New York! Regardless of single life or family life, UBI
is paid per person. The larger the family size, the lower the per capita basic living expenses, but the per capita UBI
is the same. This also encourages family life, promotes social stability and improves the happiness index. At the same time It also avoids the trouble and injustice caused by the calculation of family size in UBI distribution, and reflects the principle of equality for everyone.
3.
零犯罪(消除因贫困引起的犯罪）：
一旦消除贫困，就在消除犯罪方面产生连锁效应。当人们通过
UBI
和其他社会支持政策等措施获得基本必需品、财务与医疗保障和经济发展机会时，就给出了根除犯罪的条件，或至少基本驱使个人从事犯罪活动的原因归零。此外，解决基本生活需要、系统性不平等、缺乏教育和社会边缘化等犯罪根源将实现零贫困后零犯罪的目标。这可以同时通过涉及社区参与、执法改革和基于证据的犯罪预防战略的整体方法来实现，并应用现在的高科技成果，解决潜在的社会、经济和系统问题。犯罪不好，纽约政府就要努力消除犯罪，毫不保留的将不好的清除掉。
4.
零游民(消除因贫困引起的无家可归游民）：
纽约人，每个人一旦都有了基本收入，就能够保证基本的衣食住行，消除了流落街头的基本原因和理由，政府再在此基础之上加强管理，就可以完全消除游民的存在，同时完全取消游民所。
5.
零元欠
(消除以贫困为理由而不交应该交纳的款项)：
一旦纽约每人都有了基本收入，诸如零元购、欠房租、吃饭不给饭钱、坐火车乘公交不买票等等，就没有了存在的理由。
6.
零租霸，保护神圣不可侵犯的私有财产：
反租霸,
严守契约精神，坚守租房子住就要交房租这个人类社会的基本规则，将租房子住交房租和吃饭交饭钱和坐飞机买机票钱等一视同仁，取消房屋法庭，
保护私有财产的神圣性和维护合同的完整性,
保证纽约的房屋私产所有权。重视和保护私有财产权的不可侵犯性，确保严格遵守合同约定。对不良租户（租霸）零容忍，促进一个负责任和尊重规则的社区，尊重和维护私有制，促使每个纽约人都有机会拥有房地产，许多人既是房东又是租户，搬家换住处方便自由，充分提高和居住有关的生活方便、工作方便及交通方便，极大提高纽约人的生活质量和幸福感。以提供充足的人均住房空间和保持高质量标准为目标，纽约成为住房可达性和质量的全球领导者。
7.
零失业，取消最低工资并实现零失业:
7.1
全民基本收入实现后，将不需要最低工资
最低工资的主要理由是确保一份工作足以支付基本生活费用。随着全民基本收入的实施，不再需要最低工资来保证支付基本生活费用。工资完全的自由化、市场化并保证每个人都有适合自己的工作，并不受工资多少来决定,
将使民众更加主动有效地做适合自己的工作与事情，同时可以在社会随时调整生产成本与效率，使纽约焕发出非常强大的发展动力，生产出更多价廉物美的产品，并以具有竞争力的价格提供高质量的商品和服务，惠及全纽约，销往并惠及全世界，拥抱完全市场化并保证每个人都有工作。纽约人有了保障生活的全民基本收入，每个人都可以更好地从事自己真正喜欢的工作和事业，避免人们为了挣足够的钱来维持基本生活而干自己不愿意干的工作或干不适合自己的工作。
7.2
取消最低工资符合现在社会实情
简单的举个例子，比如拍视频放在网上挣流量，因为有了基本收入，一小时挣一元也没有问题，很多人喜欢，并有可能一定时间后挣大钱，同时也可使进行这些工作开发的人以任何合理的可接受的薪资雇员工，纽约人得到了彻底的解放，产生出无限的生产力开发与幸福感提高的能量，纽约的繁荣发展数量级的提高，纽约人的幸福指数也是数量级的提高！另外还有一点，以前的工作很多是繁重的劳动，比如建筑搬砖、采矿、生产线生产，等等，如果太低的工资会有人道上的问题。现在随着科技的发展、生产力的提高及社会的进步，很多工作已经不是繁重的体力劳动，比如拍摄视频、唱歌跳舞、文化交流服务，电商，等等，在UBI的保证下，工资再少，都不是了问题。同时，业主减少了违反劳动法及亏损的担心，雇员增加了创业当业主的积极性。每个人挣再少的钱也是工作，不做任何工作的时候可以修课学习，纽约实现零失业！
8.
实现种族平等：
通过不分种族的政策促进包容性、种族融合及平等，消除种族歧视：政府事务与统计、招聘、招生、工商经营、福利发放及一般的法律案件等，不设置种族身份栏目，不作种族区分，所有种族的人平等对待，所有人都是纽约人身份。消除种族身份区分可以促进包容性和公平性，从而减少歧视并保障平等。平等对待所有种族并坚持以人为本（We
the People)
的原则,
让纽约成为真正的所有种族平等对待，成为最实质的种族平等及一个最有凝聚力的和谐社会。在纽约这个社会中，个人根据他们的能力而贡献而不根据他们的种族或族裔来评估，纽约成为一个更加包容和公平的社会，在这个社会中，基于种族的歧视、偏见和不平等现象会被最小化，从而促进并保障社会凝聚力和公平，种族平等和融合，繁荣发展与生活幸福！
9.
免费
24/7
公厕：
如厕是所有人的基本生活需求。纽约市非常缺少并必须有足够的
24
小时免费公共厕所，保障纽约人如厕及公共卫生、增加便利性和可及性、提高宜居性和生活质量及保证健康，改善公共安全以及促进纽约人的健康。同时，使用干净且维护良好的公共厕所可以使城市更加温馨，满足多样化的需求，并有助于提高居民和游客的整体满意度。所有政府拥有的或政府可以全控作为公共使用的厕所，立即全部作为24/7 免费的公共厕所使用。每个地铁站或地铁站周边半英里内，至少有一个24/7 免费的公共厕所。保证纽约州至少有
6000
个每天
24
小时免费开放的公共厕所(纽约州2000
万人，每3000人一个公共厕所)，如果现有的不够，新建至至少6000个。如果修建一个厕需要10万美元，6000
个厕所总需要6亿美元，针对解决人就厕需要这个重大问题，全纽约投资6亿美元是一个很小的金额。
10.
统一税率，消除财政赤字：
个人收入税和企业盈利税等，实行统一税率，挣多挣少交的税只按税率算，不是挣的多了税率增加。挣钱只按税率交税，和商店买东西交零售税一样。统一税率将极大的刺激人们更努力的工作和经营，同时可以提高公平度、社会效率和政府工作效率，导致更有效地分配资源、简化政府流程、减少官僚作风并加强公共支出的问责制。统一税率可以简化税制，降低行政成本，并通过创造更可预测和稳定的工商环境来刺激经济增长，大幅提高社会效率，尤其是人们的工作积极性和工作效率，从而推动经济增长，同时提高纽约的高科技企业、中小企业和教育，增加政府财政收入，消除财政赤字。最有害的是，因为税率的不同等原因，比如收入高时税率增加，造成总收入多了，可能净收入反而减少，伤害人们努力工作增收的动力。
11.
加强城镇社区的卫生清扫:
政府完全负责公共卫生的清洁与公共场所的安全，比如街道及时清扫及除雪等，消除纽约所有地方的脏乱差。由政府卫生清洁部门使用足够的清洁工，结合现代的清洁工具，对各个地方角落，进行及时充分的清洁清扫。尤其是人多的地方比如法拉盛中心，进行及时的清扫。卫生清洁清扫中，鼓励商店住户清扫自家门口，但是不强求，清扫责任在政府。所有私人地产外面的公共地产场所，比如住家和商店门外、人行道、道路、十字路口等，卫生清扫完全由政府环境卫生部门负责。再就是，冬天下雪，私人地产门外的公共地产区域，比如人行道、道路，扫雪工作也由政府环境卫生部门负责。受益于现代科技包括人工智能，政府更有能力和效率进行更有效地清扫，也给纽约人减轻了很多的负担和麻烦。
12.
禁毒:
防止、打击、进一步禁止被证明其滥用会对个人和社会健康造成严重威胁，导致成瘾的毒品的生产、贩卖和使用，消除毒品带来的健康问题、犯罪行为和社会不稳定，对鸦片、海洛因、甲基苯丙胺（冰毒）、吗啡、大麻、可卡因，以及其他能够使人形成瘾癖的麻醉药品和精神药品,
对麻醉药品药用原植物种植实行管制。禁止非法种植罂粟、古柯植物、大麻植物以及国家规定管制的可以用于提炼加工毒品的其他原植物，禁止走私或者非法买卖、运输、携带、持有未经灭活的毒品原植物种子或者幼苗。
13.
禁枪:
13.1
美国支持私人拥有枪支的重要理由主要有几点：
1）宪法权利：
于1791年12月15日通过的美国宪法第二修正案(Second
Amendment to the United States Constitution)规定了公民拥有和携带武器的权利，以维护自由和国家安全。该修正案被认为是确保公民能够自卫、保护自己免受任何来自政府或个人的威胁的重要手段。2）抗暴政府：拥有武器是公民在需要时对抗可能的暴政的手段，保留个人拥有枪支的权利有助于确保政府不会过度集权或滥用权力。3）自卫权：拥有枪支能够帮助个人保护自己、家人和财产免受犯罪和暴力侵害。4）犯罪：允许合法的枪支拥有可以增加犯罪分子犯罪的风险，因为他们无法确定潜在的受害者是否携带武器。5）文化传统：美国的西部拓荒历史和独立斗争中，个人拥有和使用枪支的文化传统深厚。6）狩猎和娱乐：枪支在美国用于狩猎和娱乐射击活动。很多人享受户外活动，如狩猎和射击运动，这被视为一种休闲方式和文化活动。
13.2
拥枪的理由，不适合现在
以上拥枪的主要理由，除了最后第6点狩猎和娱乐，其它已不适合现在的社会实际。比如，公民拥有和携带武器可以维护自由和国家安全，确保公民能够自卫、保护自己免受任何来自政府或外国军队的威胁，在第二修正案制定的时候是合适的，那时平民拥有和携带的武器，和国家政府军队警察的武器是基本相当的，可以起到以维护国家安全、自卫、保护自己免受来自政府或敌国军队的威胁的作用。但是在现在军事科技及武器装备的现实下，平民手中的枪支，对射杀平民危害极大，对反抗政府军队暴政及外国军队基本没有作用。(https://www.fmprc.gov.cn/web/wjbxw_new/202302/t20230216_11025872.shtml).
13.3
美国枪击，造成生命财产损失极大
美国民间大约有
4亿支枪，从2018年到2021年，美国日均有120人死于枪击，平均每年有43475人死于枪击，平均每年因枪击造成的经济损失大约5570亿美元
(https://time.com/6217348/gun-violence-economic-costs-us/)。
美国每年的军费开支大约8000亿美元，全世界每年的军费开支大约2万2千亿美元。美国每年因枪击造成的经济损失，相当于美国一年军费的70%，全世界一年军费的27%。针对现在私人枪支造成的民众生命财产的严重损失及严重的社会安全问题，自卫、文化、娱乐没有生命财产安全更重要，私人拥枪是平民互相伤害，没有必要，尤其是在纽约市这样的大都市里。法律需要根据社会的实际状况而修正，现在应该开始正视与讨论禁枪问题。
13.4
世界上法律上禁枪的国家有：
中国（包括中国大陆、香港、澳门）、日本、韩国、新加坡、塞浦路斯、阿拉伯联合酋长国、伊朗、巴林、文莱、塞浦路斯、卡塔尔、奥地利、捷克、希腊、波兰、安道尔、爱尔兰、瑞典、葡萄牙、西班牙、卢森堡、比利时、斯洛代克、爱沙尼亚、圣马力诺、斯洛文尼亚、列支敦士登、马耳他、新西兰、埃及、阿尔及利亚、利比亚、澳大利亚、和巴巴多斯等，与社会政治经济状况没有直接关系（https://zh.wikipedia.org/zh-hans/%E6%A7%8D%E6%9E%9D%E7%AE%A1%E5%88%B6）。
13.5世界上只有九个国家曾经把持有武器的权利写进宪法:
世界上只有九个国家曾经把持有武器的权利写进宪法:
美国、玻利维亚、哥斯达黎加、哥伦比亚、洪都拉斯、尼加拉瓜、利比里亚、危地马拉、墨西哥.
如今只有这三个国家把保护持枪权利写进宪法:
美国、墨西哥、危地马拉,
只有这三个国家在宪法中保护持有并携带武器的权利。(https://www.jiemian.com/article/1727547.html).
13.6
美国是世界上民间拥有枪支最多的国家：
美国人口占全球人口不到5%，但民间拥枪数却占全球的46%。据瑞士“小型武器调查”项目（Small
Arms Survey）评估，全球民间持有枪支从2006年的6.5亿增加到2017年的8.57亿，很大程度上归因于美国民间拥枪数大幅上升。2017年，美国私人拥有枪支约3.933亿支，而当时美国人口不到3.265亿人，平均每100人约拥有120.5支枪。而位居第二的是处于战乱之中的也门，每100人拥枪数为52.8支。无论是私人拥枪总数，还是人均拥枪数量，美国都高居世界第一，但登记注册的私人拥枪数却只有107万支左右，绝大多数枪支处于未经登记注册而散佚于民间的状态
(https://www.en84.com/14210.html)。
14.
合理化福利政策及政府福利房:
合理调整整合福利政策，调整政府福利房及经济适用房，现有的政府福利房逐步以负担得起的合理价格及住户同意的情况下出售给现有住户，力争所有纽约人都将有机会拥有房产，很多人既是房东又是租客，自由搬迁、租用、买卖房屋，并充分保护自己的产权，成为全世界人均拥有住房面积最大质量最好及住房矛盾纠纷最少的地方！
加强社会保障，确保精简社会福利计划并专注于为有需要的人提供基本支持。加强对老人、残疾人及确实需要照顾的人的福利。评估和重新评估现有计划以最大限度地提高有效性和效率，考虑全体纽约人的福祉。
15.

倡议取消小费习惯:
尤其是制止强制小费，将小费纳入价格之中。小费的一个重要原因是以前商品经济不发达，社会中消费与服务情况不完善，价格统一性差，用小费加以调节。现代社会商品消费与服务更普及更完善，买卖基本以定价为准，明码标价，不需要小费来衡量制约或提高服务态度和质量。现在的小费，很多成为强制支出，也造成烦恼与困扰，不适合现代社会的商品市场流通服务。

如果你恨一个人，别把他送到纽约，因为那里是天堂！
