But all those programs are bad
I agree
As well as UBI
How
They are necessary
Whats a good jewlution?
*solution
UBI of 10,000$ per year (still below poverty line) would cost 2.6 trillion $ per year. Meaning that confiscating __all__ the wealth of those worth over 1 million dollars would find the program for 5 months. Meaning that after a very small threshold, you would only be getting your money back or losing it. It would cause the rich to not be able to create jobs for the poor and consumer products for the middle class. In addition, it would be extremely dangerous during an election period as a candidate could just run and promise to make it higher to get more votes.
My main fear is that UBI would basically go into effect, the stupid poor would waste it all, and cry for another rent/food subsidy scheme, and then we're stuck with an even more expensive system.
I am not, I love post irony
Which I think is very likely in the USA/UK/Germany (soon)
Denmark if given an extremely strict immigration policy that restricted 1st gen migrants and even 2nd gen, would work alright with UBI
Waste it all on what? the newest iphone?
Yeah
they'd spend the months UBI on an iphone
then starve
I dont think the poor in those developed countries are stupid at all
or not pay rent
Most have basic education
people who are poor for a year are unlucky
Just the ones who didnt go to school
They're dumb because they became educated in a worthless field
And even then, you can drop out and make a successful career
Yeah true
PHD = dumb
Yeap
<:Brainlet:457605183606620171>
PhD = couldn't get a job with bachelors or masters or hs diploma
bachelors = default
masters = couldn't get a job with bachelors
Me in a few years
not really tho
Most associates/bachelors/masters/PhDs are actually BAD for you
if you apply to a fucking job with an associates in arts or something
they'll just assume you're gonna leave later
gets progressively worse
depends on the job
I think UBI for a limited period could work very well
Swiss do this
