The alternative to the living wage.

[Ryantology]

A universal basic income also helps some and hurts others. The difference is the universal basic income hurts people who can afford the hurt.

I actually agree with the idea of a basic income. It would be a huge step forward. But it's too pipe-dreamy at the moment for me to ignore methods that do help people.

And, really, one year of slacking job growth doesn't justify 14 years of growth? Are the only solutions we're allowed to consider the perfect ones? Because, even the UBI is far from perfect.
