Basic Income Action ↗️1d ago

Imagine if money wasn't a barrier. Would you still be working for “survival wages”? Instead of being trapped by the demands and the delusional narrative of an exploitative merchant class, universal basic income gives back autonomy over your labor. #UBI

@WeirdWriter @JustinDerrick My favorite question is always: So would *you* stop to work, when offered UBI? And I've never gotten a Yes. It's always _those other people_ they are worried about. Yeah, right.

I think if implemented, I'd stop working. At least full time anyway because really I only need the basics. I'd rather have the free time then money for holidays and cars.

Would you continue working if there was a universal basic income?

Keep working full time

Reduce hours to part time

Stop working

I was a builder most of life. The one thing I know as fact, when building or nation building one should start with a solid foundation. The bottom. When we look at society we look at the enormous base which is being completely eroded.
Carney’s #NationBuilding should start at building and strengthening the foundations. Once that is strong we move up to the other layers.

We’re being conditioned to surrender to automated authority. It’s time to break the cycle and demand structural accountability.

The AI employment displacement crisis requires a structural, not policy, fix. I've designed the NUPA framework: a market-based operating system for Sovereign Hubs. Open for audit and collaboration.
