That's a welfare argument, not really relevant to UBI.

- simoncion 2y ago> That's a welfare argument, not really relevant to UBI. UBI is welfare.
- _heimdall 2y agoIs it not reasonable to consider a UBI as a universal welfare program?
- sokoloff 2y agoYes, that’s the seemingly obviously correct way to think about it. Which is also why many people who think the sliver of population who is unable to work should be able to get welfare to avoid starving, but that the vast majority of the population who is capable of productive work should be expected to provide for their own consumption rather than have it be provided to them.
