And how would UBI change that? The kind of people who are willing to break the law to avoid paying taxes are already breaking the law to avoid paying taxes.

- msgodel 1y agoRight but now the rest of the people have no reason to pay taxes so you're going to be printing money for everything.
- bryanlarsen 1y agoYou're reiterating my "UBI will be miserly" point. Yes, if taxes were set at 100% to support a $40k/year UBI, I would quit my six figure job to make $10/hour cutting grass under the table. OTOH, if my taxes went up 25% to support a $10K/year UBI, I wouldn't.
