Memes aside, he makes a compelling case for UBI, especially as a partial replacement for welfare, and approaches the situation from a businessman perspective, rather than a politician. I strongly disagree with some of his stances but from the interviews I've seen with him the guy knows his stats, and his ideas, and solutions deserve to be seriously considered. I find it refreshing that he's approaching a lot of these issues from the perspective of helping the every day person have a bit of a breathing space to cope with a rapidly changing economy – especially his arguments that it would really foster entrepreneurialism. And non of his rhetoric focuses exclusively on redistribution of wealth because of some hatred of the rich.
