Basic income allows him to have complete an utter control over the lives of everyone. I assume you know how the welfare state allows the control of low income minorities? Imagine if the welfare state was expanded to give everyone an income, and in doing so allowed those in control of it to expand their influence under the guise of helping. Suddenly, with the reduction of non-basic income wages, they have hundreds of millions of people who now rely on them and their money for survival.

Not hard to put together. The real question is when businesses inevitably collapse under the tax strain of the system, where will the jews get the money from?

Just about all low-skilled jobs could have been automated decades ago. The fact is, people PREFER other humans cook their food. People PREFER customer support from a human. People PREFER human creativity. Companies PREFER dealing with self-sustaining, independently thinking humans. In other words, humans have jobs because there's a demand for humans to have jobs. You're assuming that that demand will magically end one day. People will wake up and decide that they no longer identify with their own species and would prefer dealing with robots.

The fact is, you're a bunch of lazy faggots who put zero thought into these topics and just imagine yourself sitting at home playing video games as money magically pours in to support your lazy ass. Capitalism + gibs.

None at all.

Firstly giving money to people without asking them to work will lead 80% (source: my ass) of them to stay home and do jack shit for 20 years straight. We're lazy creatures, the strength and weakness of mankind.


Secondly look at the words: Universal Basic Income.
Basic. Basic.
How would you define your basic standard of living, does it includes a bed and a pillow, an internet connection are you joking ?
Now what do you think the people in charge of distributing this income would define your basic standard of living. Enjoy your nutriment goo and dirty concrete floor, stare at your three walls and one way mirror.

Thirdly, absolute control. Right now you're earning your money (fairly or not).
With basic income your money is generously given to you by your government so be a good citizen, don't talk back, do what you're told and maybe you get to keep your UBI if we like you. Also we decide if you're allowed to work or it's gone with your income.
If you see nothing dangerous with surrendering your income to the whims of someone else, a known pathological liar at that then may god help your soul.

That all seem so bad nobody would do that right ? Nobody would lower themselves to such a living.
Yes. Most would (source: i'm a seer).
They could work to elevate themselves but they won't. They're already not doing that today when they have the chance so they won't do it tomorrow but the thing is right now these lesser humans produce, they have a use and if you thrust UBI on them they'll stop everything and devolve into the maggots they are. Maggots all over your beautiful utopia, sucking up YOUR hard work that you perform so willingly. Are you okay with that? Because that seems absolutely disgusting to me and i don't want it. Better just get rid of them, they're useless anyway.
Good job now you've killed 80% of the population like a soulless maniac.

Show your true face, fake philanthropist. Why do you want UBI so much ?

1) Money derives its value from representation of resources. In order to sustain high values, productivity must be high. However basic income decouples work for reward. All of the lazy fucks will be paid to laze around while the hard working people will be forced to pay for it all. This will over time convince the hardworking people that the work just isn't worth it and your stupid commie system collapses. The only other way to get people to work is extremely authoritarian.Working with some level of choice and free will is far nicer system to live in.

2) It ignores underlying issues with poverty. There are people who are in poverty that will never leave no matter how much money you throw at them until the underlying issue is solved. It could be addiction, disability or mental health. If you gave a homeless drug addict one million dollars they would be homeless again within a year. If you don't fix a problem at its source you are just wasting everyone's money.

Thats pretty simple, actually: Equality of effort.

As long as automation dont perform EVERY SINGLE human job, someone is making more effort than another person, and is yet recieving "less per hour worked" than one who dont work.

Therefore the man who worked more needs to receive more, which causes imbalance in the prices, inflation, and mix stuff up.

The day machines do perform everything, though, there will be 2 outcomes:
A) The machine singulary revolts against us and kill us all.
B) Humanity achieved a utopic state where no one has to work and everyone have everything they want

If there's no demand for labor, how is that the worker's problem? You can combine the UBI with a jobs guarantee then, offering a productive, hopefully meaningful job to everyone who wants one.

Federal Revenue: ~$3.46 trillion

Basic Income starting point?????

$1000/mn -> $2,973,766,920,000/yr for all citizens
Already nearly all the yearly revenue

maybe $500? $1.49 trillion/yr that's half the revenue

But wait, we're already spending $3.9 trillion a year just for everything else so where does this 'basic' income come from? One giant big deficit gone wild and god help you from hoarders or people who take the money out of the economy.

>>128242288

The problem with that is our taxes don't go to those handouts at all. Once you cover the government expenses and benefits on your family, you are lucky to cover your own burden.

Put 2 kids in school and that's $24,0000 per year. You better make enough to pay that in taxes just to cover that. Now add police, police pensions, fire, roads...

Basic income can only really work in a near communist scenario. That might sound bad, but it could be like military life on base. That's not so bad.

Outside of the communist scenario, if you have people earning extra money, the economy is going to shift. Eventually enough people are going to get jobs to create an income gap. That income gap then can cause inflation. The wealthier would be able to buy higher end stuff, more stuff. Eventually more and more people will need to work as they want what their neighbors have. When that occurs, prices go up more. Now it becomes difficult to pay for basic necessities. Households would eventually need to become dual income households just to keep up. Eventually we will be back to where we are today.

In the past, mass deaths with wars, disease, revolutions... seemed to reset things. Today, we pretty much are sheltered from that whiled allowed us to progress to the point where we are.

It's a lie that taxes fund spending. If it were, there would be no need for a (((balanced budget))) law. The currency issuer can issue currency to pay for things it (or its people) need, and can destroy that currency through taxation. It is only the desire to make fiat behave like gold (pace Volcker) that demands one equal the other.

Money doesn't come from anywhere. It is issued by governments to buy things governments (and their people) need. To avoid excess money in the economy it is destroyed through taxation. That money is conserved between these two points is a simulation made according to policy choice, not a law of nature.

The whole idea of taxes is ridiculous too.

"Every time the earth revolves around the sun, you owe us money. You don't want to pay us? We will have strong men come to your house with guns, subdue you, kidnap you, and place you in a facility where you will be put in a cage all day."

You should at least be able to choose what your taxes pay for, or opt out altogether. Like refuse medical care, public education, roads, electricity, sewers, etc. What if you just want to live in a small shack on a tiny piece of private land where you do not take anything from the government? Why is such an individual still forced to pay up to the bullies?
I can understand in previous generations with non-stop national war, that every piece of land needs to be used for productive purposes and everyone must contribute, but nowadays it is pointless. We live in a peaceful time where our world leaders are in cahoots, there is no more genuine war, and they should just let us be free.

Don't companies already have to pay their employees wages? If Starbucks didn't pay its employees, it would seriously fuck over the other companies who do pay their employees to consume stuff. That's why not paying employees is illegal. Now imagine if Starbucks just didn't have employees. It would put a huge dent in McDonald's, Wal-Mart's, Subway's, et al, profits.

The idea behind UBI is that everyone is paid to consume and to not die, but they can voluntarily find employment to increase their standards of living (afford a nicer house, car, more, better food, more video games, vacations, etc). There's still incentive to do something with your life, because a doctor would be able to afford many times more what a peasant could, allowing them a much higher standard of living. That way, until everything is automated and there's no reason for any humans to work ever, we have a stopgap that still promotes bettering oneself.

The main point of the viewpoint is that society is an abstraction, the real thing is the individual, things like bourgeoise, poor, rich, etc, are just abstractions, they don't exist in the real world.

3) you subsidize something you get more of it. You tax something you get less. People have as many children as resources allow. By doing this you basically encourage the unproductive leeches to have more and more kids creating a strain on the productive members of society. The leech population will grow much faster than the productive population that's forced to work and pay exhorbant taxes to support the leeches

Life isn't fair. Get over it. We should've give any incentive to being lazy and unproductive. If you aren't productive to society you don't deserve anything from society. You're not entitled to it just because you exist

>>128236433
I predict that even people who are not making any money who would think they could benefit from UBI would actually suffer from it. Here's why.

>I don't have a job and I can live on small amounts of money so that I can focus on my personal pursuits. They matter so much to me that I am doing this instead of selling cars, which would net me a comfortable life.

If everyone had a UBI, then there would be no other incentive to work. The only option for UBI that would still net the necessary productivity for our society to function would be to force people to work.

>Now I got UBI, however the state has determined that my personal pursuits are not of value to society. I have been assigned work by the state because too many people are not working and it needs to get done. I no longer have a choice to live a poor life with more time to myself. I am forced into a minimum wage job and I might as well just sell cars again.

Another case

>I built my company. I hire people to work 8 hour shifts and only a small amount of people chose to have overtime. Me, on the other hand, spend on average 12 hours of my day managing my business. People call me when I am sleeping to fix a problem. Because I own the business, I make much more than my workers. However, I am now taxed to such an extent that I really am not making much more money than your average worker. For this reason, I might as well drop my company and work for someone else. I wouldn't have to pay as much taxes and I would get UBI. I wouldn't make as much money, but I would only be working 8 hours a day 5 days a week and I wouldn't be responsible for taking calls at night or managing the company. The work would be much less stressful. The business management before was not worth the extra time spent with the stress that comes with managing the business because all of my money is taken away.

So I can imagine this kind of struggle happening, and then there would be no growth from new companies.

Isn't what you are describing kind of slavery?

Now another thing: Wouldn't what you say change the focus from developing cheaper ways to produce to developing better ways to advertise? Like the main money accumulator goes from diminishing costs to making me use the neetbux to consume your product instead of another one.

Like there's this fixed pool of money that Starbucks, McDonald's, Wal-Mart, etc. are pooling for the people to "return" to whoever they see fit, wouldn't that mean that the focus for profit maximizing would relay in advertising rather than fine-tuning production?

I wouldn't work if I didn't need to in order to feed, clothe and house myself. We should be working towards a more humane and uplifting society but without the blood, sweat and tears of the poor society won't exist.

Perhaps one could legalize drugs and people would work to buy them? Or use one kind of money for living necessities (the basic income) and another currency for anything besides room, board and bread. I'm just spitballing at this point.

I think changing work culture is a more reasonable place to start. Since most of us work for most our lives the environment should be bearable, even stimulating.

I agree man, life based on proximity, like if priorities were concentric circles: individual, family, friends, neighborhood, city, province, country, world; your model would be sorting the importance from the inside to the outside, individual to world, while communists and most political-minded people usually sort it the other way around, from world to individual

My point was that one could argue, even from an extreme egoist position, that at some point, the wellbeing of the individual is greater when you sacrifice your short term gratification in favour of the most proximate circles of society

Not really, but it's got some parallels.

>Now another thing: Wouldn't what you say change the focus from developing cheaper ways to produce to developing better ways to advertise?
Yes, in essence. The economy will be based around who can produce the best products at the cheapest price. Competition for neetbux would be skyhigh. Hell, it'd help entrepreneurs who want to start up businesses next to big ones, because they could taut higher quality due to human workforce, or just having a human workforce in general. Having worked in a grocery store before, there are people who just prefer having baggers to bag their stuff and talk to them instead of getting it done faster, cheaper, and easier via machine.

It's all hypothetical, really, but it's easily a better choice, no matter how bad it is, than letting society collapse altogether. Without poor people to buy McDonalds, who will? Rich people don't shop at Wal-Marts, they don't eat at McDonalds (except when trying to run for political office), and they don't use public transportation. All of these companies automating their workforce will go under without a consumer base, but they will also go under if they cannot cut their expenses like their competition. The first company to automate the majority of its workforce dooms us all into an unemployment spiral.

Basically, the first mega-kike that can't see past their own nose is going to blow up our society. That is, unless we get a UBI of course.

Welfare is a great example of what is going on though. People on welfare are not the types of people who should be breeding a lot. And they get paid the more children they have.

Couldn't you use the same logic for modern employment, though? Under UBI, everyone is employed by every employer, simultaneously, rather than a single employer. Currently, McDonalds' employees each earn about 12 - 17k a year. Multiply that by 200k, and you can see how astronomical the costs of employing people are already.

Hell, for most companies, wages for employees take up an entire 35% of the company's expenses. Cut out that 35%, improve the rate at which you can sell products, and suddenly you have a whole lot more money freed up to pay for taxes.

Basically, yeah. Automation improves sales rates, reduces the costs spent on employing people, and is a long term investment that pays itself off real quick.

The only reason we haven't fallen into an unemployment spiral is because automation is currently too expensive compared to the average worker. It costs $150k to replace one worker, currently. If the basic employees are only earning $12k - $17k a year, it'd take over a decade to pay them off. HOWEVER, if the minimum wage is raised to high, like in Seattle, then the companies will just bite the bullet and pay for that investment anyways. It's already happened in several parts of the world. Not on a massive scale, but it's comparable to computers. At first, only a couple of companies could afford them, but only 10 years later, almost every single building had at least one computer in it, from schools, to stores, to government offices.

So too will automation replace our workforce. It'll get cheaper, more efficient, easier to implement. Then, the lower class disappears.

Down here welfare is being merged into a new kind of shit, the idea is they give you a couple extra K's (in pesos, around 70 USDs) if you get a job in a small-medium company, like they add up some $$ to an unsufficient wage so companies can benefit from more employees without getting crippled from paying the wages, and you move your ass from the couch

Sort of. UBI can be considered a universal dividend. It can be paid out based upon productivity gains, for example. The key point is that taxes do not "pay for" spending; fiat is not gold, however much central banks and their financiers would prefer to treat it that way. The money for UBI can be "newly" issued straight from the US treasury, and can be drawn out of the economy through taxes.

In respect to the unemployement spiral i think this goes well beyond automatization, in my view, doe it could be pure self-unaware autism, the economical stagnation is directly related to the social engineering, i feel most people are completely dettached to the most real aspects of their lives, work being the main one, and i'm not that sure it would surface once the "need-to-live angst" is supressed, i feel its more psychological than anything else, i think its wholy because of the amount of texts and narratives about what is morally correct rather than because of a distracting anxiety

And by morally correct i don't mean the usual shit that egoists cling to to justify their bullshit, i mean this pervasive "whats the correct way to live and act if we want to help the world become beter", i feel it has created some sort of abstracted model of human that people jerkoff to

Kind of like Dorian Gray's portrait but without the ending, this adoration and obsession of the self-image, and not only in an ego way, but like people regard themselves as an observer of their lifes, and life like a circulation around motifs that they gather from culture that keeps getting increasingly psychodramatic and obsessed with exploring "the self" from a supposed cosmic/"independent impartial conscioussness" 3rd point of view

I dunno if i made myself clear, im almost sure i didn't, but i still don't know how to fully express this sensation of irreality

Eeeeh i kind of agree but only in a very specific contextual basis, i would gladly "cuck my self" for my family or play my role in a group instead of trying to be a little star if that furthers the winning of the group

But again, the group needs to be physical, not abstract, wouldn't do it for a society or the world, but yes when its, i dunno, at most 20 people

>dissociated tax and government spending create a huge wealth disparity
I think you're assuming that tax is necessarily < spending in your scenarios.
The point is that spending and taxation can be balanced so that the total money outstanding equals the amount of resources and labor available for use. It's just that permanent ruling classes tend to prefer to write themselves checks than administer public services, so will need to be kept on a very short leash. Tax everything in excess of UBI at a flat rate, if you like. Taxation should be apportioned fairly, not driven by thousands of deductions and credits and preferences. That's how you get ants. I don't want ants either.
Most importantly, keep it simple. People can't tell when they get jewed under current tax law because it's complicated, requiring a whole industry of dead-weight guides. UBI + flat tax is too simple to jew. Also, with UBI, you won't risk ruin if you decide to go find who's jewing you and set them straight.

Historically the ideas perpetuated throughout history are the ideas the strongest men of ancient times. Or rather the strongest ideas of ancient times... but who spawned these ideas we regard as culture?
Men, nothing but men. The role of the divine is evident even today in modern society. Rather than directly reveal the divine and command openly, god gives man strength to rule himself and others in the name of what is right.
Though self righteousness may breed many imposters one only need look to God and wait, as only the strongest survive.
Thousands of years from now a culture will be followed, but what culture indeed? And who's ideas are it's blood? Yours? Mine?
Impossible for us to say, we will never see the fruition of our labor all we can do is live true to ourselves, uncompromising until the end.
Thus is mans true strength.

You imply that things that are objectively real would not apply to my own way of life. You seem to believe that the only way to protect things is to sacrifice yourselves. But what if after you've sacrificed yourself you lose what is precious to you? After all you are no longer able to protect that which you wish to protect.
The answer is to live in such a way that you will not force you to contort your beliefs or life to protect what you care about. You live righteously and god will grant your flock protection. Only the unjust or insecure fear holy repercussion.
And the unwillingness to risk what you hold dear can be thought of in only one way. Cowardice.. And god frowns on cowards.

>If not such a welfare state would require huge taxes, how would cripple the small, leaving the marked open to corporations
I'm not sure that the present corporate form would need to exist. Without people being dependent upon them for their income, corporations become a lot more dispensable and have less power to set the rules. Continuing:
>but you can''t tax people too much, the economy will collapse in the end of Rome or in USSR.
True. When taxation is used for the sole purpose of equalizing the money supply and the goods/services supply, not to pretend gold or to force passing fads and moral panics, it's easier to figure how much money must be withdrawn from or injected into the economy to keep things from getting out of hand. The equations stay lower-order, maybe even linear. Less or no witch-doctors and their special pleading on CNBC.

Otherwise you show nothing but a lack of confidence in your beliefs and abilities. Anything that was created before us was created by man and anything that comes after us as well.

Robots are pretty easy to build, as long as basic materials are available. In the worst case they could be built from scrap. Other people's robots aren't necessary in order to consume. Smaller-scale production and labor arrangements would become more interesting to people. It doesn't take a 2000-person factory to extrude aluminum or mold plastic.

Maybe, but there's a role for cities and states in this arrangement, I'd imagine, if for nothing else than to procure and organize common labor on public goods and to administer the jobs guarantee part of the system. If they aren't doing their job for the good of the community, the community can drive them off. Strikes are easier now with the leverage of UBI behind them.

What can one consider right? Consider wrong? The missed opportunity to save others, deemed unrighteous, the lamantation at another's lack of action.. Can the lack of moral action be considered as immoral as a heinous act itself? If so we are all doomed but those who struggle tirelessly to save their fellow man.
Who knows truley by what categories are we judged? That is for each man to determine himself.

That's the point commies get wrong, ownership concentration will be greater, few corps and a government will control power and people will live like cattle, if we start a massive consumerist welfare state.

>Depends on what you want to do with them. Not every robot has to be Cmdr Data. Something to test the soil and water the rows is still useful and still qualifies.
What I'm saying is that they aren't easy enough to form various small societies.

You can't have this and a decentralized society ample ownership.

Communism is the opposite of that. Workers own the means of production, not corporations. You might be using the word wrong.
There would be plenty of space for a government that issues its own currency and provides a job guarantee to build corporations alongside those and drive them out of business, in case they get too uppity.
>You can't have this and a decentralized society ample ownership

And so if I determine my own values and beliefs I am suddenly not human? I do not embody the human characteristics you enshrine simply because I do not allow myself to be subverted by other men?
I'd argue my way of life embodies all that it means to be human in your eyes and much more. Believing in yourself, trusting your abilities as a human being and knowing that you are right are things every human should embody. If you can't embody these things it's because you have allowed others to rein over you from the grave. Or you simply lack the capacity or intelligence to find your way.
As I've said... anything that came before us was made by man and anything that comes after will be too. If you don't trust in your beliefs enough to embody them to their fullest and live in an uncompromising fashion your beliefs will never become culture. If your beliefs are true and you hold them to be so your end goal should be to perpetuate them to others. If you can't believe in yourself enough to do this you will never succeed in getting others to believe in your thoughts as well, leading to the death of your rationality.
