Well, then I had the wrong definition.

It's not what Friedman was talking about then.

universal basic income is social security for all

everyone gets the check

doesnt mean they receive money neccessarily.

the koch brothers would receive UBI in principle but itd be a tiny drop compared to their taxes

If everyone get ubi people why would people go to work

I don't see what use Bill Gates would have for a $1000 check or so per month.

@awakening 290 why would people go to work without UBI?

@awakening 290 as i said i dint work precisly becouse we DONT have UBI

To have a money

you see now why its a mathematical impossibility?

For only 1500 dollars UBI

You'd need 10.5 trillion dollers PER MONTH

According to that definition, UBI is complete nonsense.

thats why its stupid

@Dr.Wol the goevernment will have to default on its debt anyways

Well, yes it is then.

selective UBI is called "welfare"

which is waht we have now

money for those who can't afford for themselves

@Undead Mockingbird well i disagree that its stupid.

@Redneo thought about becoming an entrepreneur??

Maybe I'm just too tired.

the idea of that welfare money is that you try to depart from it on your own

@awakening 290 i didnt just think about it i did

was paid 40$/hour

buuut i had costs, too

not that you game the system to get the most of someone else's tax money

thats the idea yes

else you'd get socialism

@awakening 290 not high costs and if i expanded itd be a tiny drop buuut i couldnt get over the first months due to the effect it would have on welfare

Nobody wants socialism, except socialists - and those don't count.

with UBI this wouldnt have been an issue

Though as it stands, i take welfare and i dont see why i would work before we have free markets

and as long as i cant buy big billbords advertising heroin we DONT have free markets

what the fuck

you're taking welfare money and selling drugs

@Dr.Wol Democrats want to take SSI and turn it into universal income for everyone. That would completely drain the coffers, leading to them raising taxes which in turn would make everything more expensive and destroy the middle class and poor.

are you a gimmick account

@Wulfolme no, im not selling drugs

You’re thinking about humans and everyone being the same
