RE: Tomatoes or Tomato’s – Freewill and Universal Basic Income.

The reason I see it from that perspective, is that is what it is. A physical transaction of resources from one individual to anther.

Any other perspectives are totally fine, but any philosophical or esoteric angles, fogs the issue of what UBI is

Sort:  

This is a good discussion/debate topic to explore...especially with someone so knowledgeable! When I mentioned the 'dark ages' and the struggle for basic needs...I wasn't saying their needs were different from ours. Of course...people will always need the same requirements no matter what era we live in. I favor the utopian mindset...but this was simply an aside expressing the fact that the struggle for those needs should no longer exist...not the actual needs themselves. Anyway I could go into greater detail on your other points...but the string of replies in comments tend to get rather tangled! Although my opinions and perspective seem to drastically differ...I respect yours and the fact that you have a very well rounded and intelligent argument.

...the struggle for those needs should no longer exist...

that is a negative view - ergo not utopian in perspective (sorry)

...the word 'should' is just a guilt trip... (i did a post, months ago - on the use of the word 'should' - the most evil word in the English language, imo)

Don't start throwing word like intelligent, and things, in my direction, if you don't mind !
😂😂

Here is some proof... !

part 10 - ish.... an intellectual romp😂
