Now we've gotten past the definition of categories and into levels -- that's progress.
That's where Basic Income or something like it shines. You don't have to micromanage -- you look at averages for the area and give a lump sum and let the individual figure it out.
- marknutter 11y agoI don't see how that's progress. To me it further complicates the issue. You're suggesting that there would be different basic incomes based on where you live? Doesn't that seem the least bit discriminatory?
- clavalle 11y agoWe went from a general question to discussing specifics...that is progress. It is a complicated issue so I am not surprised or dismayed that when getting to specifics things get a bit complicated. And yes, there should be some flex based on where a person lives. It is not discriminatory (in the pejorative sense) it is pragmatic. And perhaps a useful policy tool.
