They run from the issues
think of the children!!
Mfw people drive 2 hours to their work
to "stay out of bad neighborhoods"
can't admit it's niggers and/or spics
because they're sheep
Overall however I support UBI over welfare in nearly every case except literal muttistans like the USA or UK
I think it could work in Alabama only
And gradually from there
UBI is bad for america
It gives more freedom to the poor which is bad for our corporate overlords
Pretty much, a big side effect of UBI is companies increasing work standards
Because people have more options in general
People don't give up work entirely but perhaps work only 40 hours a work maximum
and are picky with jobs
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.

@Da_Fish still less than if we eliminated social security/medicare/etc.
Still a bad idea
Preferable to welfare imo
Good video on the subject
I don't have a specific number for UBI
A youtube video nice!
@Deleted User watch the second one first
It discusses it well
UBI should just be a mechanism to replace and phase out welfare
UBI is welfare
Why not test UBI in a few smaller areas to see how well it works?
I do not see this mans qualifications on his patreon or youtube about page
@Obungus canada did this and it worked alright
In the US?
some places it failed
But it doesn’t show long term effects

Different countries
