Why call it universal base income if you can price yourself out of it like you can with normal welfare? I thought that was the entire point of the system.
- erik_seaberg 8y agoThe point is to avoid any effort on deciding who really needs it, and not create perverse incentives not to work. If your tax bill exceeds your UBI, your income is a lot higher than your UBI so you don't care that much.
