RE: Universal Basic Income - You sure need this, Enrollment Giveaway

in #steemit6 years ago

When talking about the drug addicts and the people going through mental trauma, one thing that you might also agree on is that they feel lonely and that is why they might be on some type of substance.

To know more about this a very good video is shared by "KURZGESAGT" on YouTube. Here is the link to the video, Why The War on Drugs Is a Huge Failure.

That is an interesting video about drug problems. Thanks.
Switzerland has a unique approach that seems to really help reduce drug problems.
It would be interesting if they would try adding some basic income for clean citizens and see what happens.

I just now watched the video you have in your main post above about basic income. Well presented and thought provoking.
Maybe $1000 a month is a bit high to start or maybe it's a good idea, IDK.
I think $1000/mo would be a hard sell politically.
I like that they mentioned the danger of politicians abusing the power of a program like that.
$40/wk is only $2080/yr. and is definitely not enough to quit work, just enough to buy some food.

This YouTube channel has a very creative team, always making better content. I like people sharing ideas that helps make our society think and work more thoughtfully.

Today, in the morning I read a news which stated figures, which made my eyes pop out of amaze. Only 0.001% people in the world earn 40% of the total money earned in the world. I really really think this is in a way related to the poverty around the world.

Have you seen, "where to invade next" documentary? It shows what every country is doing better that other countries can do to make their country better. I don't have a link, but you should definitely see it.
