False

UBI is reforming the current welfare in a way that it directly hands out that welfare equally to everyone, so the state can dismantle all state spending (like healthcare) and tell you to go fuck yourself because it already gave you money
Additionally, think of it as getting a portion of your tax back. It's the opposite of communism

Or, just hear me out, the government could lower my taxes so I can keep more of my money. So instead of having to take part of my income, giving it to the state, then having that distributed to some shitheads, I can use it for whatever I want. Because It's my money. Isn't that a nifty idea?

I like the idea of universal basic income, but there's no way it could actually work. Say the government gives every $10k. Rent just went up $10k. Probably everything else would get more expensive. It's the reason why the price of food was so fucking high for the past 5 years, even after the price of oil completely bottomed out. The Obama admin was handing out foodstamps in record numbers.

There's no way to make it work without price controls. But now we're in literal communism territory, and fuck that.

This. Income inequality is the price you pay for high standards of living. You only achieve perfect equality when formerly rich man is standing next to you in the breadline.

UBI is the future.

Australia almost has it right, just the system is fucked. It's really easy to get on welfare here, assuming you're either studying or put on a program that specifically makes you look for work, or work odd jobs for either charity or other shit.

It sounds great from the outside, you can get money and the govt helps you find work or get resume references through charity jobs. But there's very few standards, and not enough people checking up on these "work for the dole" places. You hear horror stories of people who get injured and then getting their payments cut cause they can't show up due to injury.

Shit's fucked, but it could work if the government hired a lot more people to legitimize the process. Or privatize it and make sure there are strict OHS and union laws in place for people. Only then could a UBI maybe work.

I think relying on privatization could be the only way for a UBI to work, which is ironic considering it's a very socialist idea.

This. you just made a baseline, and the market would react to the baseline.

Post ww2 the GI bill gave vets a lot of money. Banks came up with finance plans around that GI cash, as did unis and retail.

For your GI bill you could get a huber house in the suburbs, for instance. the market warped around this. However, since GIs were still a minority, it didnt have the same distortion effect as "give 10,000 to 2/3rds the country" would.

McDonalds, hospitals, Walmart, they all know exactly how much money they can charge for baseline services, based on welfare and minimum wage. UBI just shifts that up and devalues the currency. Now, that actually may not be bad from an export perspective, but there are other ways to go about that.

As Ben (((piro said, the only point at which UBI becomes relevant is when we basically have Star Trek level technology - replicators, ability to 3D print anything anywhere, AI that is able to service every need - conversational or creative.

Until then capitalism and charity are the best options.
>>
Beyond the fact it wouldn't work at all on a basic math level, I think even in a fantasy best-case scenario you'd just end up with the same people spending every penny of the money they're given and then screaming that they don't have a livable wage because they had nothing left for when their car broke down or they had to go to the hospital. If you want to take care of people, you need to be able to actually react to their specific needs instead of trying to create some utopian system where those needs never arise, because they will always arise. At this point, you lose the entire premise of "it's so simple because it means no welfare systems!"

It's a transfer of wealth from the part of the economy which demand is elastic towards the inelastic.

>>134766503
I mean, if there has to be some sort of social safety net, I'd prefer UBI to welfare (which directly disincentives people from finding jobs) and social security (a Ponzi scheme). I think it'd be smart to give everyone enough money that they can buy their own catastrophic health insurance, so at least when someone comes to a hospital uninsured we can just call them a retard, rather than crying about it. Following that, UBI would also allow us to return to a fully private healthcare system.

>I agree dude. How about you try and contact your local senators or whatever you can to achieve exactly that, let's see how far you'll go
I have, they haven't responded to any of my strongly worded Emails because the state I live in is rotten to it's core. Many Americans, especially those in California, are taxed to fucking death with a bureaucratic system full of holes and inefficiencies.

With UBI I would be taking part of my income or assets, putting it into a mismanaged system, then that money is spread around and I get some of it back. Why the fuck should I pay into it if I'm going to get a fraction of it back? It is almost as retarded as social security, which was created with the premise that more people would be paying into it than taking out of it. The opposite is about to happen soon and we don't have any way to pay for it. What happens with UBI when people are taking more from the system than paying into it? The same thing, the state has the obligation to pay but can't afford it and we go further down the hole of debt.

The US government is like a teenage girl with daddy's credit card. You're going to end up with a lot of shit you don't need and debt.

How about instead of giving money out for free to everyone we just abolish money all together and instead give all products out for free?

We already have that. It's called deductions.
UBI was unnecessarily complicate that and gives money to people who don't pay in.
The fundamental problem should be really apparent by now.
Also, we should stop welfare anyways because it's fucking up the markets.
>>
UBI will be necessary once enough jobs are displaced by automation, else no one will have the money to buy the goods that machines produce, and thus everything grinds to a halt.

If sentient artificial intelligence / the singularity comes about before everyones jobs are taken by automation, such an intelligence may be able to devise an alternative solution to the problem... I think this is the most likely scenario, as many human jobs require general intelligence.

>>
>>134770907
Yeah that's true but what can you do about it? As long as people vote in candidates who promised them welfare, welfare will continue to exist. And those people are the majority. Therefor we can conclude that welfare isn't going anywhere and that instead of trying to remove it, we should reform it so its not such a huge burden on both the state and the free market

>>134771778
>Also, we should stop welfare anyways because it's fucking up the markets.
Exactly why you should be for UBI - it's supposed to be a way to stop funding state infrastructure and healthcare with welfare or subsidies and instead give the money to the people so they spend it in the free market. The UBI is exactly low enough that you cannot save it and have to spend it, so this means that every UBI payout will be directly injected into the market, which is basically an indirect subsidy to your market while claiming that you're giving poor people free money. The market loves you, the people love you, and poverty is eliminated - literally what more can you ask for?

But still there are people who haven't put a lot of thought behind it and automatically claim that it's communism. Is the Fed's QE communism as well?
>>
>>134766503
Anyways, we already have UBI in France, and all it does is create an underclass of welfare arabs and niggers who breed tremendously to get more benefits.

>>134772857
>Exactly why you should be for UBI - it's supposed to be a way to stop funding state infrastructure and healthcare with welfare or subsidies and instead give the money to the people so they spend it in the free market.
Which would also fuck up the markets. Giving people money - who did not earn money - gives market power to people who have none. It would distort demand and artificially reduce supply. Do you see the issue with this?
> which is basically an indirect subsidy to your market
Which is bad.
>The market loves you
the market hates you, poor people and businesses catering to the poor love you.
>poverty is eliminated
because people won't mismanage money once it becomes free
>But still there are people who haven't put a lot of thought behind it and automatically claim that it's communism.
It's definitely not communism but does arise from socialist principals. Taking from producers and giving to the class of poor.

Treat the disease and not the symptoms. If the people are burdened with taxes and can't afford expenses why give tax then give that money back to them? That's horribly stupid and inefficient.

>Therefor we can conclude that welfare isn't going anywhere and that instead of trying to remove it, we should reform it so its not such a huge burden on both the state and the free market
It doens't matter how you reform it, it will always be a huge burden on the state and the market. The problem is that "reforms" almost always do more harm than good. Obamacare? Premiums are through the roof and more people just bite the fee, oh, and you don't get to keep your doctor. Thinking UBI is going to fix the problems of our current welfare issues if going full retard. People mismanage their finances all the time, giving them the money to do so is only adding fuel on the fire. Think subprime mortgages and the idea "everyone should own a house" kind of thinking. If I give someone 10K do you really think they are going to be smart with that money? Sure, a few people may. But for the most part people blow it on hookers and coke. Now that 10K is pretty much gone and once the idiot that blew it wakes up from his stupor reality comes crashing back down where he is living paycheck to paycheck.
>>
>>134766503
No and if its instituted I will stop working entirely so as not to put anything into the system.
>>
>>134766912
But if you have to pay into a system that only gives you some of your tax money back, why not just keep the taxes without paying them?
To even accommodate UBI, you'll need everybody to have a job. Can't pay money that isn't produced.
Unemployment would have to be illegal, and then the state would need jobs for the workforce to have, so they'll appropriate industries from richer people who actually own a business.
That's a good reason for those business owners to take all their money and their skills with them to another country.
In effect you'd have to print shitloads of worthless money to be able to afford UBI, but to keep life affordable you'll need to fix the prices of goods.
Inevitably you end up with an economy like Venezuela, where it costs more to produce toilet paper than the price of it in stores.

UBI is just another version of communism. Don't go there. Bad luck.

The mere existence of another human being bears no inherent value to either you or me.
What they do, what they contribute is what matters and with automation the contributions of humans slowly but surely disappear. So why should these humans that contribute nothing be given a means to continue their existence?

This is why many would claim some kind of transcendence via technology as the way to go. And i would agree if i believed that a true AI capable of replacing the human mind entirely would come about within my lifetime. I don't believe that will be the case.

Therefore we're left with simple script machines producing goods and hordes of humans doing nothing.
Sooner or later laws of nature will reemerge and these humans will be forced to fight for their mere existence to justify that very existence. And this will last until a transcendence of some kind can finally be achieved.

I will tell you right now, what I've felt about that idea for... over half a decade.
If all the post-scarcity stuff ever happened, and someone still needs me to keep them up for f-all know what reason in that situation, a hypothetical situation when survival and prospering is essentially figuring out how to effectively push a button/download a schematic to create a thing by pushing a button, or do that to design a resource gathering system? Aka post-scarcity society? Anyone wants to leech off of me Then, in the most can-hack-it era possibly imaginable aside being a literal god... is getting a 3d printed rpg round to their skull from my button-push-away personally robot army.
I'm going full on eugenics mode to inferior leeches then. Fuck that care-bear shit, man.
The future will not be a take-from socialism dominated society, lead by utter losers. I am not keeping up the retards. I'd eradicate them, and the world will be inherited by the monkeys smart enough to push the button and receive the food pellets on their own, so to speak, without having to make me their damn slave.
And that sir, will be a much more peaceful society afterwards, I must say I believe. You press your buttons, I press mine.

The borders have to be secured, illegals cannot be allowed to gain access to UBI.

Immigration should have always been a tightly secured process.

The fact that we let people into the US who don't speak English is ridiculous enough.

English is now universal, books and studies for English are universal.

I'm not 100% against immigration but there should be prerequisites that pretty much ensure the person coming her is cultured into the gist of America and can integrate instead of isolate.

There is no inherent value of a human being other than their genes which over generations also accumulate deleterious mutations causing disease and reducing overall fitness.
In nature natural selection takes care of the dead end genes whereas your blind ethics would reintroduce them over and over into the rest of mankind.
Beyond the genes of an individual the only value they hold is in their actions whether simple manual labor which is the easiest to take away with automation or by problem solving with intelligence that's difficult to replace with machines which mainly do relatively simple math so far.

Bottom line a family with 20 something kids in Africa that only consume and produce absolutely nothing in return is OF NO VALUE TO ANYONE. If you believe otherwise you're the psychopath or autismo.

No, it's a surefire inflation-causing measure. When the supply of money redistributes to the vast majority of citizens, the value of the money will go down and prices will rise. UBI checks will be useless when they hit the doorstep.

Universal basic income would be amazing in a fully European society with a strict justice system and high levels of civil responsibility.

Unfortunately a country like that has no chance of existing in our current environment and UBI would just lead to more Africans and Muslims getting gibs.

And everything will be just fine with exponential demographic growth that doesn't have to work for its own existence?

Yea just flush out people that dont wanna be used by patriarchal homosexual systems under the guise of political parties.

Crazy right? Imagine a bunch of smelly bums who werent allowed to bathe for years and contract lice naturally (??) coming into the jungle disturbing the peace. And check this out it was these same migrant caucasians who invaded the Appalachians in west virginia who later were aided by the goverment with welfare first before anyone in so called Africa which is another continent where the monkey blood spilt and pillaged just like asia the americas australia and europa.

This breakdown of genetics hahaha so now peoples entire genes are irrelevant unless their labor can be validated by groups who seek to control the worlds resources all while convincing fools like you that those who live in africa or any area that isnt completely plagued are less deserving of THEIR own resources. So because you obviously hail from a gene pool who is known to have the lowest birth rate in the world somehow this justifies eugenics you have something against a woman birthing children? Or are you one of those assholes who believes something like that effects you because some blue collar fags said theres not enough of the world to go around on the tele? Boiling everything down to money never taking time to think why poverty exists. Hmmmm kinda sounds like too many people are butt hurt when it comes to good genes and reproduction as always same old "you make more babies than me so ill kill you all" mentality *cough cough* baby dick syndrome

> Say the government gives every $10k. Rent just went up $10k.

Obviously just printing money would devalue the dollar. Look at Milton Friedman's plan. I'm assuming if a UBI were to work it would need to be tax based as opposed to just printing off cash. Because just printing the cash would devalue the dollar.

>inb4 14 year old triple echoes Milton Friedman.

Or look at Charles Murray's plan. I think Charles Murray's plan is the best as it does not eliminate the profit motive, and it gets rid of the welfare state.

Under Charles Murray's plan people will still have major incentives to create and work. But the jobs will likely become creative and STEM oriented.

If the plan were to work it would obviously need to take into account demographics at a national level because demographics will affect how UBI is used. Protection of the borders in such a state will be of the utmost importance to avoid the economy from being overrun by 3rd world economic migrants and collapsing the economy.

Yeah, there's pretty much no way society can avoid it with automated intelligence. The more important issue than UBI will be how humanity controls the AI that necessitated the need for UBI in the first place.

Yes, with UBI people have freedom to create things while not feeling stressed about financial security. Also many people are oppressed and aren't given fair chances in the job/education market so guaranteed income should be expected. This will however horribly fail if it's done under multiculturalism.

The luddites were not competely wrong.
Our economic structures are based on consumerism. I produce something and am compensated for that production. I use my compensation to purchase the production of others. Others use their compensation to purchase my production. Whether I make shoes, flip burgers, manage others, manage others money, or if I’m one of the few I manage my own money but in some way there is production. Until recently the major source of production was labor. It is egalitarian in that almost everyone is born capable of labor. Technological innovation and invention have reduced the amount of human labor necessary for production. Human muscle power was replaced first by animal and now by machine. Machines today far exceed the human capacity for strength, dexterity, endurance, accuracy and precision. The missing piece in the doom of the value of human labor is AI. Elon Musk thinks it's dangerous to society and this is one reason why. It's not skynet you need to worry about it's that when AI truly arrives it will make human labor worthless. The subsequent social upheaval will not be pleasant for some. Labor's value is decreasing at an accelerating pace. This is causing problems we all see.
When labor becomes worthless as it soon will, what will happen to society? When the only way to achieve compensation is to already own capital what will happen to the great majority of the population that own nothing of value?

>>ex2: disease strikes a specific crop one year, lowering the total supply by over half. Allow normal increases in price as scarcity to meet demands increases the value, have prices return to the previous baseline as the supply is replenished.

Maybe I'm retarded, and I know, MUH FREE MARKET, but that's the only way I see UBI having even a remote chance of working.

With reasonable limitations on essential goods and services in the market, which should bleed over into indirectly regulating the price of luxury items. You could argue that people would have more money, so producers of unessential goods or services may price gouge, but with the prices of food and fuel being regulated there's no justification outside of simple greed. If it becomes a problem, then they could receive the same treatment as essential goods.

All that said, UBI should also have limitations on itself. Find out the average cost of living throughout the nation, then only give that amount. Some places will have a higher cost of living, these people will still need to work if they don't want to be homeless. Some places will have a lower cost of living than what UBI covers, so sure, they could possibly enjoy a shitty NEET life where they've got the bare minimum to survive and maybe a new PC every decade or something. They'll still need to work if they want a more comfortable life.
