> In the age of corporate greed I see it as the reverse. In the age where people want a minimum wage of $15 without increasing their skills and asking other members of society to pay for it (either the employer or every productive person through taxation), the productive members are feeling the pressure to produce more and increase efficiency. Basic income will only ensure that more members of the productive class move to the dependent class which would only exacerbate the problem.
