RE: Universal Basic Income : A Crypto Approach

in #cryptocurrency7 years ago (edited)

Hey man! Appreciate your thoughts about this. I have 5 kiddos too. I struggle with this. On one hand, we have people who are in need and on the other hand we have people who abuse generosity and kindness. And then to add to the mix we have never really seen a system that was not infiltrated by corruption and power hungry people.

I like the idea. I am not sure that in my lifetime we will see a system like this implemented. I hope things will change for the sake of my kids (and future grandchildren), but I trying to look at this through a realistic lens.

Gonna sign up anyway. There is nothing to lose.

Woohoo, it isn't often that I find someone else whose offspring can form a full basketball team. That's great!

On one hand, we have people who are in need and on the other hand we have people who abuse generosity and kindness.

I am right there with you, my man. We are seeing that play out on Steemit too. I have heard some incredible stories of people living in pretty dire circumstances and have had their lives significantly changed because they are able to earn $2-$10/day on this platform. Other's find ways to abuse the system and amass more power and wealth.

In my job and education, I have seen some systems of regulation work marvelously well and other's cripple innovation, or worse, serve only to keep the scales tipped in the favor of wealth. I don't know what the answer is, but I do know that a power shakedown can add some much needed disruption. It can also result in blow back.

And thanks for following! I was really happy to find your page today and am excited to engage with your writing.

Cheers.

Hi! Thanks for your support, @growingpower just upvoted your comment ;) Hope you have a great day

Hey there again, if you did in fact sing up, did you also do the full verification process where they send a code to your phone and ask for address? THEN hit the green "sign me up for UBI" ? I ask because my account says that I have some referrals that haven't been approved yet. Just wanted to make sure that you wouldn't be missing out if you thought you finished the sign up. If this doesn't apply, cheers anyway.
