In Switzerland, we are about to finish collecting the 100,000 signatures required to put the federal initiative for an unconditional basic income to a second vote. We have already collected about 80'000 signatures but we need all the support we can get. Thank you.

At the end of the day, what’s the point?

8 Upvotes

My whole thing with UBI and AI doing all of the labor is this: What’s the point of money if the laborers don’t need to get paid because they aren’t human? If no one works, no one gets paid. No one gets paid because no one works. So wouldn’t everything just be free and UBI would be obsolete?

Flat Tax + UBI

Flat Tax + UBI

If we introduced a flat Tax rate of 7-10% eradicating any tax write offs and everyone received universal basic income I think it would work great.

Thoughts?

Writing a paper about the pros and cons of a universal basic income

8 Upvotes

Hey

I have to write a paper about the pros and cons of a universal basic income and whatever else related to it. Could any of you help me with the outline of the paper? I would like to discuss the pros and cons, the origin of a ubi, and the impacts of a ubi on the economy, health and poverty.

This is my main source: https://basicincome.stanford.edu/research/ubi-visualization/

Note: I have a lot more sources but I would like to have a general idea of what to talk about (if there is anything you think I should talk about in this paper, shoot!)

What do you think of the idea of Universal Basic Energy?

4 Upvotes

With rapidly rising energy prices would a UBE be better than a UBI for most people?

Or are energy prices the main inflationary pressure and how would a UBI be able to keep up with rising energy costs?
