Q: How about universal income for all?

Let's see, the usual problem is it will work but we could not spend enough money to make it work.

I actually hoped it failed, but out of envy that the new generation could sit in mom's basement and play computer games and eat cheetos all day and I did not get that luxury. Well, a good idea that waste money will always be tried again, because the next person is smarter and can do it right the next time. RIGHT. Good luck with that.

Hard to get free money when the program doesn't last long enough for the immigration paperwork to go through to get my free check and sit on my ass. It's just not fair. Forget this crap, just scale Trump's wall and get food stamps and free shit in California and we get a gun and blow shit up and shit on the sidewalks. Canadians and Europeans are too stingy to share.

Sure, I'd like to be paid to reenact the lazy song every day. Let other people foot the bill. What could go wrong?

Q: How difficult is it to get the Z visa when you are alredy in China? Especially Mexicans

A: They're saying you should be in China already because entering China i

A:They're saying you should be in China already because entering China is pretty much impossible at the moment due to covid restrictions. This means schools can only recruit from people already in the country. Also, unless you have dual citizenship you probably wouldn't meet the visa requirements to teach (teach English that is, maybe you could teach other subjects, I don't know) in China. They have a native speaker requirement that means only people from certain countries will be accepted. The second point will probably get this post downvoted, any time you mention the native speaker requirement it brings out one or two angry thumbs - they don't seem to understand nobody on this forum makes the rules..... Anyway, my advice to you would be to look elsewhere. Between China's tough visa requirements and their even tougher covid measures it's pretty much impossible to go there now to teach. The good news is that other countries are dropping their covid restrictions and opening up again so there are probably still opportunities available to you. Good luck. -- Stiggs
