RE: The Case For A Universal Basic Income

in #technology7 years ago

No work brings money. Sounds too good to be true.

But in real life I doubt in this. Maybe UBI will live and people will get money for no work, but they will pay it somehow else. We live in capitalistic world. There is no such thing as a free lunch in my opinion.

Sort:  

It's a tough one. We already get universal healthcare, education, etc,. It's not impossible to see some free UBI too

In a capitalistic world the economy falls over if consumers don't have money to spend on products and services. Money has to get into the hands of consumers somehow. It's looking more and more like it won't be through regular employment.
