Andrew Yang Had Crypto-Friendly Presidential Election 2020 Program
Andrew Yang, 45, is a New York native and the son of Taiwanese immigrants. He is a businessman, lawyer, and philanthropist whose entrepreneurial endeavors led him to found the nonprofit Ventures for America (VFA). Yang entered the presidential race in November 2017, under the slogan “Make America Think Harder”.
Notably, Yang’s campaign proposal is one of the most arguable. Firstly, Yang suggested offering $1,000 dollars every month to every American over the age of 18. He called it “Freedom Dividend”. According to Yang, universal basic income would help in the age of the rapid development of automation that leads to workforce challenges. Secondly, Yang promised to introduce a value-added tax on corporations like Amazon and Google and require them to give a percentage of their profits back to the American people. As a result, Americans would become investors of these corporations.
Yang said:
“You can’t fight job automation the same way you fight climate change, by asking people to sacrifice or be more vigilant about the resources they consume. We have to go the other direction and spread the bounty of automation and new technology as broadly and quickly as possible.”
In addition, Yang proposed “Medicare for all” and “Human-Centered Capitalism”.
In August of last year, Yang suggested modernization of voting with the little help of blockchain. Moreover, he promised, that if elected he would promote legislation that provides clarity in the digital asset market space. Interested in crypto, Yang planned to use a “21st-century approach” to enable regulations that enhance “the knowledge and capacity of government while using new metrics to determine competitiveness and quickly identifies emerging tech in need of regulation.”
