I mean okay…
But then what? Should I keep working just to give it to someone else, or should I just join them and let someone else pay for me?
Would you just stop working?
This argument is always brought up when it comes to universal basic income or free housing. It was disproven every time it was tested, but people still believe that everyone else will just stop working if they weren’t punished for being alive anymore.
Do you recognize that these sorts of initiatives can have long term affects that are not accurately understood in a small sample sized study over a short period of time?
Yes. But what we do now does absolutely not work so I would give stuff that was tested and works in a small sample size a shot.
