- jhuckestein 13y agoAnother aspect of basic income usually is to pay higher taxes on consumption and lower taxes on work
- ZeroGravitas 13y agoOne of the interesting things about basic income, is that it generates responses like this, yet you probably already do this in your country, whether it's welfare linked to job-seeking or disability or having kids etc. Worse still, the way in which these people are currently given the money makes it economically idiotic for them to go and find a small amount of work, since they'd often end up getting less money overall, so they're trapped in this life of which you don't approve.
