RE: Why basic income can’t possibly work
"Basic income will never result in someone taking a more productive job, because if they wanted to, they would have done so already in order to get a higher salary. "
ah yes, that's why the 20 million people dying of poverty every year are just lazy lmao.
what a joke
What does it have to do with it?
The quoted sentence is about people who can get a job and and it says that basic income does not make it more likely that they will take the job.
It is not about people who can't get a job at all. But true all the same - basic income is not going to get them a job either.
"It is not about people who can't get a job at all. But true all the same - basic income is not going to get them a job either."
except ofc for the fact that you typically need things like a house to get a job
No you don't. If that were true then we would have no houses.
