RE: unconditional basic income

Aaaaaaaand :D
Did you see the numbers what people would do with it?

22% of the population suddenly thinks about becoming an entrepreneur, when the burden of their current shit-job is taken away from them!
More than half can imagine to get education, which in the end also enables them to build their own life.

Ok, now I'm good :P

Sort:  

22% of the population thinks of becoming an entrepreneur when they can avoid making sacrifices to accumulate capital and shift the burden of any failure onto others? That's a good thing?

The burden of big failures is already on all of us. Banks, car industry, you name it. Not only are they subsidized, when they fail they get millions on top. That's where most of my taxes go to right now. I'd prefer them to be spent on enabling the small guy, instead of feeding the rich.
