Also important to stress that most (limited) experiments suggest this assumption to bee true. UBI is not as radical as many people pretend it is. It is essentially a one size fits all solution replacing all existing welfare programs with, in many cases, better outcomes.
- geraldwhen 3y agoYou can’t quit when you’re in an experiment that will end. Unless payments are for life, the experiments of UBI are invalid.
- account42 3y agoSo what's your argument? That we shouldn't try UBI because we can't for sure how it will work out until we do? Guess what: That's true for pretty much everything. That doesn't mean discounting the evidence we do have because it's just that, evidence, is a reasonable thing to do.
