GUYS

is Universal basic income good?

I’d just cut contact and ghost them.

Heyo

fuck no

Why not

UBI should exist but be low

UBI has been tested in a few places and people havent stopped working because of it

No. She’s been loyal and stood by me thru a lot where others haven’t.

As in, just barely enough to survive and buy food and stuff

Yes

What's Universal Basic Income?

Everyone gets paid

So

Everyone gets an income I mean

No.

Instead of government welfare programs and food stamps and whatnot

Why not

Because then you're receiving that which you haven't earned.

You just give everyone some guaranteed money every year regardless of circumstances

it doesn't matter how actually practical it is in application, I'm against it in principle because it means people are being given things they haven't earned

Btw I dont actually support UBI, I'm in a liberal discord and was debating with them about it, and they made good arguments which I can't counter so I want to see what you people say

Based on tax payer money.

I mean who cares? Friends come and go. Replace her with someone that doesn’t have mental issues.

It equates to theft.

How did we get on welfare.

The idea is that the money is just enough to get you back in your feet and participating in society again

@Chadwick I care

money is a measure of how much value you've contributed to society (at least ideally) and if you just receive things because "muh rights" it normalizes being a lazy shitbag

if not now, later

“Bleeding heart conservative”

My girlfriend is bipolar ( genuinely, not fake ) should I break up with her?

it's important for a society to be strong

Lmao maybe liberal.

It can encourage people to be more entrepreneurial since they have a more steady money supply

no

@LPR do you love her?

do not break up with her

Yes.

The amount of money you would get wouldn't be enough for you to live on. You'd still need money for housing, cars etc
