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 all their life are dumb
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
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
You get a stipend if you go to uni or training for an in demand skill
Say welding, during the 6 months training you get paid by the gov
As of now your success during the first 4 years of your life at 18(if going to uni) is almost entirely dependent on your family's wealth/stability

Opps lol
@21tagtmeiern I think most employers besides large corporations look at anything that isn't STEM or specific career training (nursing, etc.) as a liability
well yeah if you get a phd you wanna work in that field
I know my grandfather hires computer science/STEM grads for programming jobs
