You are basically saying: We already have bad socialism so lets try good socialism. UBI is as bad if not worst. Distorted market will be least of our worries.
I am in favour of guranteed, no-string-attached food & shalter.
- aninhumer 10y agoSo distorting the market by giving people money and letting them decide what they want is bad, but distorting the market by buying/producing arbitrary food and shelter for people is good?
- wav-part 10y agoNo its lot less worse than UBI. I should point out that the Govt part would be minimal. Food & Shelter should be provided by multiple private entities under contract from Govt. If you want to eliminate Food & Shelter Welfare as well, you would not hear any objection from me.
- _andromeda_ 10y agoNo objections here too.
