If I had a guaranteed income that allowed me to meaningfully exist and only occasionally work so as to earn enough whenever I wanted to make larger expenses, AND society could more or less ensure that, then yeah, I would probably consider working less if someone is going to pay me to live. Also enhanced unemployment during the COVID-19 pandemic basically proved nationwide that it would create pockets of the economy where people would literally just not work because you would earn more versus going back to work. Wouldn't you do the same if your unemployment exceeded current market software engineer rates and any rate people offered you in the market? I would. I definitely would. I would work on my own projects while being funded by the state. Isn't this something you could just ask people?
