Wouldn't that mean UBI should divided a proportion of annual GDP?

- anonporridge 5y agoSure, pegging it to GDP sounds like not a bad idea. As the nation gets more productive, everyone's effective UBI goes up. If the real value of the UBI gets to be too high and too many people stop working in balance with automated labor, then GDP starts to decline and people start getting worse off and increasingly incentivized to find some productive work to do. Seems like it could end up being a self balancing system.
