RE: Contest for Free Entry to Steem Basic Income plus two SBDs.

in #steembasicincome6 years ago

@flyyingkiwi - Thank you for the contest. UBI is an interesting topic deserving lots of debate. Here are my 3 lines below -

“A lot of crime is committed out of need or necessity, UBI would help eliminate this, making our lives safer. In a world of rising and falling, and sometimes collapsing economies, UBI would help to stabilize economies by providing a constant source of citizen/consumer value-flow back into the economy, a form of value re-cycling. UBI would assist to elevate the human mind and spirit to seek higher good, because when people have little or nothing, they are reduced to anxious struggles to survive, and have little time or motivation to consider the wider world and the future of coming generations.”

Sort:  

I think that the economic argument for UBI ( the way it boosts an economy through increasing consumer spending) might in the end be the strongest argument, as everyone benefits from it, even those at the top.

Thank you for the feedback. My thoughts as well, everyone benefits.
