RE: unconditional basic income

in #politics9 years ago (edited)

I was too. I'm not any more, because having some more than the bare minimum is nicer. Same goes for everyone else, and it doesn't matter if you get that bare minimum with or without constant nagging by authorities.

Unconditional basic income means that everyone gets the same base, everything you want above that requires you to work. The actual problem that you get the same for doing nothing as for working at Starbucks would effectively be solved, the workers would always have some more than those who stay at home.
