Different countries

Swiss just rejected it

We could try it here

It worked well in Canada and Finland in homogenous towns

No

It didn’t show long term effects

This is what we should all strive for, if you arent for this you arent a real american

A movie is what we should base our society on!!!!

<:tipp:362030204673196033>

That’s like totally realistic!!

UBI also doesn't encourage people to stay poor in the same manner as welfare but it does open up the can of worms of refusing to be employed and living in a barrel

Watch the damn video

I am

I’m serious

What do I do when I see a video that says the exact opposite?

watch it

It wouldn't be 10k a year, maybe 5k

I don't think UBI is a good choice in the USA

or anywhere with an immigration policy that's lenient to any degree

Yea, Americans are too lazy & would take advantage of it

In Japan or Taiwan it would work ok

Because they already have generational restrictions

For instance if you're a 1st gen immigrant, you can't vote, or get welfare

@Froce it would still cost 1.25 trillion a year

1.25 trillion is less than social security

and welfare

Yeah

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.

@Kosaki is obviously a troll

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)
