The AI economy is accelerating a question we already had to answer: Will new abundance flow mostly upward, or will every person get a real floor beneath them? Our new blog makes the case for choosing the floor. The Floor We Refuse to Build basicallyincome.org/blog/TheFloo...

Nothing will radicalize you to be in favor of socialism and universal basic income like personally witnessing how quick the transition is from Your benefits ran out to Here's a list of charities and homeless shelters (it is not a long list) to LoL go die, I guess.

• tax corporations—force them to pay or freeze their assets. • convert that revenue into universal basic income for everyone in your country. • turn the tables on capitalism—make companies have to woo YOU to take a job, not vice versa. • fund science and education instead of war and war machines.

This may be the most important thread you will read for the next while: Regardless of nation or which province you live in, or your political, we should be pushing our politicians on this point: unconditional universal basic income works as intended. It does not reduce labour or create freeloaders.

I wish we had a universal basic income so much because there are so many people who would be able to live their passions such as street performers without having to worry about working extra jobs to barely make rent

Yes to Universal Basic Income! Use it to unleash human potential. #UBI Note one "downside" for the current ruling class: the average person will have more real freedom, which is antithetical to the design of oligarchs, dictators, and other fascists.

If I made $200,000 a day & had no more money worries, what would I do with that money? That would be about $73,000,000 a year. I would start small with feeding & housing every homeless person in my community, even if it meant giving them a monthly universal basic income. Just as a start.

Universal Basic Income - putting money into the hands of the poor will fix a hell of a lot of the problems in this society. It's even the most economically conservative way to help our country. Every dollar put into the hands of the poor goes back into the economy.

If I got Universal Basic Income, I would pay taxes with it. Barring a calamity, I think my retirement will see me through. Sure, having more money is always a "nice to have" That's not what UBI is for. UBI is gives everyone basic survival, so they can build from that instead of from underwater.

Inequality is strongly linked to most societal ills. Drug abuse, crime, obesity, life expectancy, teen pregnancy, all of these are made worse by greater inequality. We should tax billionaires out of existence and institute a truly universal basic income.

Tax the rich and use it to fund: Universal healthcare Paid medical and maternity/paternity leave Free post-secondary education Universal basic income to offset AI Universal childcare They can fucking afford it, and it’s time we reclaim their stolen wages.

The only good I could see coming out of nostalgia baiting would be saying “Wasn’t life better before you had to worry about money and healthcare? Support universal healthcare and universal basic income.”

the best doctor ever

UBI (Universal Basic Income) allows a person to do work that they enjoy and care about, rather than working just to survive. And honestly, if someone gets UBI and doesn't want to work at all, I'm 100% okay with that. The number of people who wouldn't work would not negatively impact the workforce.

You know what would go a long way to me getting off of antidepressants? UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE / UNIVERSAL BASIC INCOME! 😡😤😭

Workers don't just contribute to this nation-they ARE this nation. Every dollar of wealth, every mile of progress runs through their hands. Not shareholders. Not CEO's. Workers. See them. Honor them.

Being acknowledged is important but so's getting paid a living wage. And frankly universal health care and universal basic income should both be human rights, so include those too.

BlueSky — hello! For my first post, let me make clear that the only way out of fascism & the impending economic fallout of the illegal war in Iran is through robust social programs. Social Housing. Universal Healthcare. Universal Basic Income. Universal College. Here’s to the Worker’s Century!

I‘m going to die on the hill that universal basic income is the key solution to solving most social issues. And it’s not due to a bad communication strategy that we don‘t have it, just like it‘s not the fault of, say, public health care system supporters that we don’t have it. The game is rigged.

UBI is freedom to choose useful work over bullshit jobs.

This is why I am always in favour of a universal basic income.

Would I have generalized anxiety disorder if my income wasn't basically the same as it was in 199fucking9 (after inflation) and the world was on fire all around me? I DON'T KNOW BUT I JUST WANT TO FIND OUT SOMEDAY universal healthcare and universal basic income now, please

If we had Unconditional, Universal Basic Income, people wouldn't be forced to work for places like Amazon and Walmart to survive.

"If universal basic income enables even one more Einstein to become Einstein over the course of the next century, it will have paid for itself a thousand times over." www.scottsantens.com/the-angine-d...

I need Universal Basic Income so I can genuinely just disappear for months and do nothing, my brain is screaming that I haven't had a real day off since like- February of last year.

when we walked out of 2020 without universal basic income and universal healthcare, we were so cooked we were burnt.

If you really wanted to destroy the far right and regain your position as a party for the people, there are numerous options, this isn’t hard: Universal Basic Income. Renationalise. Single Market. Customs Union. Leveson V2. Disallow Foreign Media Ownership. So many options.

but if some progressive were to actually have a plan to implement universal basic income the paper would immediately adopt corporatist right wing establishment framing that the idea is unworkable and dangerous somehow

basically what i'm saying is raise my taxes specifically to pay for universal basic income.

Want to reduce the use of antidepressants? Try a universal basic income, 4 six-hour work days per week, and lots and lots of paid vacation time. That might help.

Universal Basic Income, universal child care, universal education and health care for all would make our country a decent place to live again.

Wealth Correction is the way forward! #Inequality

Our economic access is a right enshrined in our commerce clause before even the bill of rights tenth amendment gives the people power. This right is infringed when opportunity and freedom are both restricted by public and private actors. Basic Income cuts past this and helps everyone get access!

We have a wonderful new blog post written from the second-person point of view, addressed to you, Jeff Bezos basicallyincome.org/blog/WhyJeff...

How do you like our logo?

The COVID stimulus period was the closest we’ve ever come to UBI, isn’t it? I DREAM about when every week money came from the government and my bills could be paid. Groceries could be purchased. No psyche breaking anxiety about whether or not we’ll make rent this month. Wild times.

Please enjoy our new avatar! Look at this guy! He's just getting you some money.

Employers and employees are headed for a collision over wages, precarity, and AI. Our newest essay argues that UBI is the cheapest off-ramp for employers, and the most winnable demand for workers: basicallyincome.org/blog/TheSolu... #BasicIncome #UniversalBasicIncome #GuaranteedIncome #UBI #YangGang
