So okay

2019-04-22 23:13:31 UTC  

let's say

2019-04-22 23:13:34 UTC  

3.8t

2019-04-22 23:13:39 UTC  

how large is the budget?

2019-04-22 23:13:45 UTC  

1.5t at most?

2019-04-22 23:13:57 UTC  

Libertarian economists, free market people. It's supposed to be an alternative to the current welfare schemes and subsidies. The intention was to significally reduce bureaucracy

2019-04-22 23:13:58 UTC  

wasn't it like 700b?

2019-04-22 23:14:14 UTC  

320 mil ppl x 1000 dollaroos x 12

2019-04-22 23:14:22 UTC  

chicago school even came up a UBI policy called negative income tax NIT

2019-04-22 23:14:25 UTC  

about 600b for military expense

2019-04-22 23:14:33 UTC  

even if you got flat 0 mil expense

2019-04-22 23:14:36 UTC  

its a fuckton

2019-04-22 23:14:39 UTC  

you'd still need to make up 3.2t

2019-04-22 23:14:50 UTC  

VAT isn't gonna cover that

2019-04-22 23:15:04 UTC  

and it would be partially pointless because it's tax money you're giving and then taking back

2019-04-22 23:15:10 UTC  

we tried UBI in my country. It didnt work

2019-04-22 23:15:12 UTC  

might as well scale back the UBI

2019-04-22 23:15:31 UTC  

@Rapier83 which country

2019-04-22 23:15:36 UTC  

Finland

2019-04-22 23:15:40 UTC  

that

2019-04-22 23:15:41 UTC  

it's like the only one to UBI if I recall

2019-04-22 23:15:57 UTC  

@Tricerius the f u knew?

2019-04-22 23:16:18 UTC  

because I saw it being brought up a while back

2019-04-22 23:16:20 UTC  

was that guranteed income regardless of other incomes?

2019-04-22 23:16:26 UTC  

0h

2019-04-22 23:17:41 UTC  

think it was tried only in some counties

2019-04-22 23:18:00 UTC  

it's a terrible idea regardless

2019-04-22 23:18:05 UTC  

it encourages people not to work

2019-04-22 23:18:28 UTC  

true. i want a jooooob

2019-04-22 23:18:43 UTC  

if they are conformists they'd rather laze about and be content with that than work

2019-04-22 23:19:31 UTC  

in the UK the UC scheme is based on bare min and is reduced based on earning

2019-04-22 23:20:00 UTC  

lmao at his 2nd sentence

2019-04-22 23:20:19 UTC  

so, automatization is taking away jobs.

2019-04-22 23:20:21 UTC  

BUT

2019-04-22 23:20:24 UTC  

you want to BRING IN

2019-04-22 23:20:29 UTC
