This is why I think UBI is worth a shot. If it got rid of the deadbeats in the workforce, I'd call it a win. |

Did it say how they are paying their bills at all? Admittedly I'm speaking anecdotally about unemployment that's just the people i know who aren't working atm...

I just read it... Ambiguous about what they're doing for income but says it's not unemployment yeah... That's just what i been hearing but it could be propaganda... I just know a bunch of people doing that atm and i can't say i blame them .. i have one friend who has 3 kids and gets a check for each kid. He's staying at a motel for like 400 a week and not even working. If i could get that kinda money without working sign me up.
Like Big3 can say it would just weed out the deadbeats but really i think you're a sucker if you enjoy punching into some **** job every day... If you gave out $1000 UBI i could probably either skip punching in entirely and just do gig work or i could get a small part time job. Definitely wouldn't be working full time unless the pay was amazing.

Also, yeah I acknowledge that there are BS jobs, but if you can get 10% of the workforce to stay home and eat TV dinners, the working class will have more leverage. So at least it would pay better and be harder to fire people. |

You think only lazy people hate punching in?
The majority of jobs are ****.
