What's the point of that? Moving isn't difficult.
- dragonwriter 10y agoMoving fast enough to significantly affect CoL can be extremely difficult if you're poor, less so if your not.
- ryanlol 10y agoSurely basic income should make moving much easier then?
- dragonwriter 10y agoDepends on how its implemented: one that is implemented as suggested in the source article here (below poverty level and replaces existing poverty supports with aid that is in many cases less valuable in total -- including replacing programs that are federal/state cooperative programs whose value currently is sensitive to local, or at least state-by-state, costs) may well not do so, and indeed may make it harder (as well as making it harder for the poor to even survive.)
