Universal Basic Income

[Chad32]

I don't really think it's a good idea for people to just receive hundreds or thousands of dollars by default. Or if we're talking about it being small amounts, it really shouldn't be hard to scrounge up some money from a menial task like .

Two big problems with your counter plan

1. If you mean they should do jobs for the money . That would undercut the people doing those jobs

2. You can't live on raking leaves, mowing a lawn, or washing a cars . And what's the point of said requirement.

Were already experimenting with this in Ontario

Like I said before, it's either going to be a small amount, which one could get just as easily by doing simple jobs that always need done, or it's going to be a large amount, meaning what's the point of busting my ass making $450 a week at a factory, when the government's going to send me a check for that or more for nothing?
