  6. I've made this argument repeatedly, but I felt the need to try and make it definitively this time. Yes, universal basic income should be universal by even including billionaires like Elon. Here are all the reasons why universality is superior to means testing.

    At a Basic Income consultation for the City of Kitchener a few years ago, the people who would benefit most from #UBI (or #NIT) decided that NIT was not the way to disburse a Guaranteed Income: The tax system is too slow to respond to changing economec needs.

    I was askes to present the results from our group: youtube.com/watch?v=SAOKSCvNBW

    Sadly, there was never any action on Basic Income in #Kitchener.

    I didn't think passing Bill C223 to study a Guaranteed Livable Income would be an easy win, but neither did I think it would be so strongly defeated.

    And this was just for a study! The cost would have been minimal, but I guess politicians were afraid the study results might have indicated they've done a poor job of providing the social safety net they claim we have in Canada.

    Here in Germany there is a common known Saying about Work that goes as follows, literally translated into English:

    "A meritocracy, only those who work are allowed to participate."

    I don't have a Clue either why this overworked Lifestyle is idolized that much or why People believe in it. 🤔

    That's definitely toxic Behavior of Society.

  19. @dacig @scottsantens it is also a very efficient stimulus to the economy, as giving money to people are not wealthy results in them spending it into the economy.

    Just like #ubi

  24. @captainrob @scottsantens Taxing 100% of land value and using it to fund the UBI would fix this. #LVT cannot be passed on to tenants due to land's inelastic supply. This policy essentially makes land collectively-owned, so moves us in a #postcapitalist direction.

    This is the best exposition I’ve ever read of why UBI is not only affordable, it’s efficient.
