- s3tz 5y agoI think these experiments should use a better name if that's the case, ie limited basic income.
- bserge 5y agoUniversal Credit heh
- Mordisquitos 5y agoThat's a good point. We've already carried out enough small-scale tests of UBI to know that it has no obvious drawbacks, and carrying out even more small-scale tests will not provide us with much new information. What we need now are state-wide implementations of UBI, as they are the only way that UBI-sceptics may be forced to accept it if the results are positive.
- cbmuser 5y agoA small scale test doesn’t have any impact on market prices and thus does not reflect reality.
- Al-Khwarizmi 5y agoYou speak as if UBI opponents had any evidence whatsoever that it wouldn't work.
