Basic income sounds like a very good idea. As a teenager, I saw this news blurb from the George Bush presidential campaign. A woman (single mother) was working three jobs to make ends meet and the audience engaged in a massive circlejerk. Couldn't help think about the incredible waste of a life - soul-sucking jobs that ensure this person doesn't move up economic classes, has no time to focus on self-improvement and gets to provide no attention to family. And then the next generation continues this cycle. In the 21st century - we must change our approach to governance - dignity for everyone.
