"Is a means test for relief necessarily any more humiliating than the ordeal that the taxpayer must go through when his income tax is being examined—when every question he is asked and record he is required to provide implies that he is a potential crook? If the reply is that this inquisition is necessary to protect the government from fraud, then the same reply is valid as applied to applicants for relief or a guaranteed income. It would be a strange double standard to insist that those who were being forced to pay the guaranteed income to others should be subject to an investigation from which those who applied for the guaranteed income would be exempt."

"The State is a shadowy entity that apparently gets its money out of some fourth dimension. The truth is, of course, that the government has nothing to give to anybody that it doesn’t first take from someone else. The whole guaranteed-income proposal is a perfect modern example of the shrewd observation of the French economist, Bastiat, more than a century ago: “The State is the great fiction by which everybody tries to live at the expense of everybody else.”"

"Vogt goes on to point out, with refreshing realism, how hard it is even today, before any guaranteed income, to get people to shine shoes, wash cars, cut brush, mow lawns, act as porters at railroad or bus stations, or do any number of other necessary jobs. “Millions of service jobs are unfilled in the United States, and it is obvious that men and women will often prefer to exist on small welfare payments rather than take the jobs. . . . If this situation exists before the guaranteed income is made available, who is going to take care of services when everyone can live without working—as a right?”"

What an interesting statement: by Mani Doraisamy

"The Era of Solopreneurs is Here"

"An engineer with AI tool can now outbuild a 100-person engineering team."

Whilst the #opportunities of using #AI are great, the #downside is that not #everyone will be able to #succeed as a #solopreneur

That is where #UBI comes in: it provides a safety net for those who need more time to adjust to the new world. ❤️

The Era of Solopreneurs is Here

DeepSeek just dropped a bombshell: $200M in annual revenue with a 500%+ profit margin—all while charging 25x less than OpenAI. But DeepSeek didn’t just build another AI model. They wrote their own par...

If you work full-time and still can’t afford basic needs like food, heating, rent; that’s not your fault.

The game is rigged in favour of #billionaires and #UBI is about leveling the playing field. Because no one should work endlessly just to stay #poor

#Fairness means #stability for all.

Anxiety isn’t always “all in your head.” It’s in overdue bills, unstable housing, food insecurity.

UBI is about real mental health care - by removing the relentless stress that keeps you up at night. Because you deserve peace. ❤️
