anything would be better

than universal income

I've played enough democracy 3 to know where this is going

@Pino Sinatra because it would disincentivize work or?

Neither

The poor will need to eventually be "removed" when they aren't needed anymore

I'm very sure our current leaders will find a clever way to do this

gene therapy or survival of the fittest tbqh

People who want to sit in academia for 30 years and not have kids will eventually have their genetic makeup fazed out

i don't think everyone needs ubi so no

My main issue with UBI is that I feel the poor are retarded and would waste it all before paying for rent and food

Basic income would be really helpful for me right now

then they would come to the gov and cry for food subsidies/rent subsidies to be reinstated with UBI

I still live with my parents, but with just the right amount of savings I could move out

If we could keep UBI very stable, and eliminate all welfare, I'd support it

it has been shown that the poor specifically do not waste their UBI

So maybe in Denmark for instance I'd support UBI

or a similar small, homogenous area

i don't think the poor are retarded

some are

but there are a lot of poor people and a lot of reasons they're poor

Only give a certain group of people UBI

that's just welfare

The rest can systematically starve

Well I don't think that's realistic

Think about the college students guys

The military is made up of intellectually average people

It is, anything is possible once you get to the utopia realm

sorry @Deleted User ,i went afk for a while

basically yeah

Average IQ in the army is like 100

Good luck

paying people for doing nothing is never a good for a productive society

By that point the army will be completely composed of vat raised clones

kek ok

I just find it hilarious that people think that rich bois will willingly give up their shekels

I think the rich need to be kept in check via violence

The USA has succeeded at this for a while

Like 80% of the wealthy people inherited it

When it breaks down the rich get fucking murdered
