I'm all for UBI. I definitely think there are bigger things to tackle like healthcare, but there's absolutely nothing wrong with trying to push this front as well.
FWIW, I had an interesting discussion where UBI is not a socialist construct but actually more born out of capitalism to keep the masses happy.
- akvadrako 7y agoUBI isn’t socialist at all - it’s very market oriented and reduces the power of government. This is why many of the earliest supporters we’re libertarians like Friedman and Murray. Though they usually called it negative income tax, the output curves can be made the same.
