The entire article is built on the dual assumptions that (a) most people would willingly choose to spend their lives not doing anything if given free money and (b) requiring people to maintain a full-time-employement-like lifestyle while on whatever limited money they can get from welfare and unemployment is not a burden. I disagree with both.
- rexpop 8y agoI am very much looking forward to the HN ideologues attempting to prove (a). This is a community full to the brim with innovative, empowered enlightenment thinkers, many of whom would be thrilled to receive VC and manifest their backburner projects. Edit: I am very disappointed to see that the invisible overlords of this forum have quashed the discourse. I shouldn't be surprised, but it has been jarring.
