"We think everyone should have enough money to meet their basic needs—no matter what, especially if there are enough resources to make it possible. We don’t yet know how it should look or how to pay for it, but basic income seems a promising way to do this."
The bit about "how to pay for it" is interesting considering that Uber, AirBnB and other companies that are known to not pay corporate taxes and exploit their workers have been funded by Ycombinator.
Maybe Ycombinator should fund a startup that manages to have companies pay workers a living wage and pay corporate taxes. That would be a nice contribution to the world economy.
