Basic income, when coerced through government is socialism. You don't have to like it, but its true. Its the very definition of socialism.

Just because you don't like, and maybe cannot understand my answer doesn't make me a troll. The answer was very clear, very direct. Keep government out of it, allow individuals exercising liberty in a free marketplace to pursue thousands, even millions of approaches to finding a path to prosperity. Government only turns it into violence and theft, and kills all hope of innovation.
