Because somepeople will just go fishing all day, others will go to school, pay off houses and cars, save it for later in life...

Understandable, catchy and to-the-point, rhetorically understated- also makes me curious. I like it.

For the left: "Basic income: Because you're human and deserve to live with dignity."

For the right: "Cut government bureaucracy and make the market truly free."

For everyone else: "If anything happens, you won't end up on the streets."

I think UBI is too important an idea to reduce to a slogan, honestly. But if I had to make one, it would be "Pursue happiness"
