and would be forced to get a job

it would just solve the issue of people having to work multiple jobs at once just to get by

hmm

I don’t want to work.

but you wouldnt be able to survive on UBI if you just stoped working

but then that incentivizes employers to lower their wages since the government is paying a portion of living wage

I wonder if I could sell myself to science. I have insomnia

and with UBI there would be no more welfare or unemployment

since the state covers living wages (which btw, San Francisco) employers could just "sell" themselves to labor as "extra money for what you want"

so wages would go down

if I understand that correctly

I think you miss the point of money though. The lowest possible amount would be reduced to zero. Prices for everything else would go up negating the effect.

and the only reason I'm not on principle against this is because it makes no sense to build a society off of social darwinism if there are some who could have made it to the top but literally were stopped because of factors other than themselves

so to that extent I'll agree with UBI

but I still think it isn't very smart

it's fixing something that isn't broken

Why can’t Jeff bezos give me 1 mil so I can pay off some debt and invest the rest?

bro same

He doesn’t need billions

Again. The age of technology. The only barriers that exist are the ones we create for ourselves.

I’d be fine 250k

I bEt jEFf bEzOS WouLDNt MisS $50,000,000

Right. I sure could use it

I’d even adopt a few dogs

Rather than force the government to pay everyone, we should work to create better charities and private organizations to assist with broke people.

cause if he gives u money than he has to give everyone money

No. Just me would be okay.

@LPR brother I honestly wish that were possible

lol

I just don't actually think it is

It is.

eh

I mean

We just need to reach the right people.

You and I want to, there must be others.

I wish everyone could love one another and get along. The world doesn’t have to be the way it is

well as long as the charity is not enforced by law, and this change is simply a cultural change of heart to help fellow citizens out then I am definitely behind this

mind you, I did say citizens

There’s plenty

People are so busy with their gray morality and believing that it's impossible that they aren't even willing g to consider the possibility.

Love doesn’t exist anymore in this world
