I'm not for UBI, but I doubt you'd see a major increase in prices. There's been incredible price inflation since 2008 without an increase in wages. So all you'd see is an increase in consumption back to previous levels. And considering the over capacity of everything, increased consumption is sorely needed. Also it would put a floor under RE prices after the coming bubble pop. Those reasons are why it's even in the conversation. I doubt it goes anywhere though.

If it's anyone over 18 then we're looking at having to pay out ~250 million dollars a month which is nearly 3billion a year just to pray and hope that the idiots spend it all and not bank it because then the plan fails since they are relying on people circulating the cash.

Wouldn't work honestly, paying you an equal wage is very circumstantial. Meaning it might not necessarily be a living wage, depending on how the market fluctuates, and even so do you think an increase in the economy will be something we personally see?

No the government will either line their pockets or create more wars, or other useless social programs. It also cannot exist on the simple premise people aren't willing to give up their accumulated wealth. Millionaires don't stop being millionaires, just like billionaires don't stop being billionaires.

All this does is fuel their pigeonholed on the market and economy, it's all about control and regulating your paycheck is a big part of this. Stop giving them this power, this kind of politics should stay out of the freemarket.

>Liberals actually believe that "free money" exists

It does - you take the money that you were going to pay your employees, and you put it into stocks. You pay your employees with payday loans, which not only assures that you can pay them - you can get more return on the stocks than you have to pay in interest on the payday loans.

The more money you can bring in, the more stocks you can buy. Walmart sets up a store everywhere because they can make money on interest via stocks - the profit comes not from the business, but from the investment capital generated by the business.

All Walmart has to do is undercut their competition's prices, and they print money - even if they sell every product at a loss. Everyone does this, and that's why the USA has a shit economy and everyone lives with their parents.

Just hijack their system to give everyone UBI. If it works for private enterprise, it'll work for the government.

That would even assume the nonfiat value of the money would stay constant though. Realistically, If you were to print that much money, the actual value of the currency would be more than cut in half. You are starting to see that now but since they can't print that much money overnight, it is a gradual change.

If they just implemented UBI without changing anything else then yeah it would be dumb because people would get UBI + unemployment + food stamps + whatever. The main draw to UBI is that you can cut away large swaths of the bloated and inefficient government that spends big bucks employing armies of paper pushers in favor of just cutting everybody a check. Plus the government doesn't need to concern itself so much with our personal lives since it has to constantly check in on us because fraud is a big deal

Furthermore, it gives citizens a distinct advantage over illegals since illegals will definitely need a SSN in order to receive benefits.

That's a lot of "free" money that US is pumping out even at the very moment.
Keep in mind that UBI would replace a lot of this stuff.
At least that's how it's planned over here.
It's supposed to replace the absolute mess of a social security system we currently have in place.
It's being tested and the faster it becomes a thing the better.

>>140299990
Also this.
It's really an inevitability during the next 15 years.
Automation will create a new class of long term or permanently unemployed people, who need that safety net.
Killing a double digit % of your newly unemployed population isn't exactly a realistic option.
But it's not going to be as rosy as people think. It will most likely involve a lot of "voluntary" work.
Participate in it and you get the full UBI, don't and it gets cut in half.
We have this system in place with the social security system. Government can force people to enter programs with big cuts like this.
Still no one gets left absolutely without money in any situation.

A basic income is guaranteed to increase inflation. The question is in my mind, will it be catastrophic?

The problem with a basic income is that you have to utilize taxation to pay for it. Meaning, you have to take money out of supply (investment,) and bring it toward demand. This isn't a problem for a token amount of money, as taking some excess money that investors have could be functionally redistributed to improve demand. The problem is that if I have to take a tremendous amount of money out of investment capital, through taxation, and redistribute to demand, then there won't be enough capital left over to compensate for that increased demand.

IE: If I tax industry a percentage of its profits to give people money, which increases demand, there won't be a corresponding increase in supply, because the capital used to invest in more goods is instead utilized to pay for basic income.

It's like a snake eating its own tail. As the basic income taxes away from businesses, businesses won't be able to compensate with increased demand because of the taxes that take away its ability to produce more supply.

The question therefore is, how much inflation does a Basic income generate? And would the optimal amount of money that a Basic Income could provide could even be enough to live on. IDK. It "feels" like a bad idea to me.

If you increase the money supply by 4 trillion dollars, it absolutely would. The current money supply is around 3.8 trillion. You would be doubling the money supply, so 40% is likely a low estimate.

Look at it this way then. Benefits are never going away because they're so ingrained into our laws and people depend on them so much. It's basically an endless game of wack a mole. So how do you get rid of them without actually getting rid of them?

This is basically the crux of the issue. Benefits aren't going anywhere without a replacement but which would impact us worse, benefits or UBI? A quick internet search reveals that there doesn't seem to be any good examples of UBI working or not working. Personally I would rather not bet the economy I'm currently in on an untested economic system.

The issue is that unless we ban AI we'll see automation take over almost all jobs. We could conceivably reach a point where a very small handful of extremely wealthy technocrats are controlling a fully automated economy. What then? The biggest problem with UBI is that it enables degeneracy, people won't have a reason to better themselves and their communities. What if the solution is to design a revamped society with a new kind of meritocracy? One that acknowledges a world of post-scarcity. How do we keep people from becoming hedonistic takers in a world of unlimited wealth?

In theory, competition would prevent the costs from going up. So if Wal-mart did a price increase on all of their food, Kroger could still keep their prices and eat up Wal-Mart for lunch. In places where their isn't as much competition, like Housing or Healthcare, then you'd see prices rises.

In theory at least.

Basic income will certainly work so long as it remains a manageable percentage of GDP. After 10% or so, it becomes healthcare all over again. People will simply look at is as depending on the government is just better than taking care of themselves. Good luck with that.

Anon. Printing money is an absolutely retarded idea. But doubling the total money supply doesn't reduce the total value of that money supply in aggregate.

It just halves the unit value of each dollar. So prices double to meet the new market cap.
>>
>>140297772
Omfg, yes! this is what i can't believe nobody else gets when they act like an equal amount given out to everybody will not change the value of that $1000. Why not just make it $10,000 or $1 million? Without government price fixing in place, it will only make the cost of everything go up. if everybody is universally given $1 million dollars, that doesn't make everybody millionaires, it drives the value of a $1 million dollars to worthless.

Mega-corps have no incentives to compete in that way. Look at telcos/mobile carriers/ISPs. You don't see any competition now because they all price-fix. There is enough natural spread for them to all be very profitable. So if you increase the spending capacity of the general consumer, every business is just going to increase their prices. Its free money for them.

UBI will never work. Ignore the inflation problem for a second. There will always be people who won't spend the money responsibly, meaning that welfare will be absolutely required if we don't want to let people just die on the streets. Welfare+UBI is not even remotely possible to sustain.

>>
>>140304696
Depends entirely on the market. The cost of things like cars, televisions, and computers, have all gone done across time, while food remains constant. Some markets are naturally monopolies (ISPs/Healthcare) or are restricted by the government (Housing) so price-fixing becomes informally normal. If Mega-Corps can fix, they will fix. But in most markets, they actually can't.

are you really so ignorant or naive as to think all those billionaires don't own anything or control more than they pretend to own
why can't you stake a claim on some land somewhere? they already bought it all and control the rest - you are not allowed to create a place to live here - the homeless are being denied homes of any sort unless there's a fucking landlord ready to soak up all that public cash
no landlord - no home allowed

Maybe you NEETs will understand this:

Ever play a MMO?
Ever wonder why shit is so expensive in the AH?
Ever buy gold?
Ever see a RMT purge, and watch prices plummet on the AH?

That's inflation and deflation. Money supply is huge, and everything is way overpriced.
When they purge the RMT, they decrease the money supply and reduce liquid cash in the market.
The reduction of gold causes deflation of prices. Gold becomes more precious.

UBI is like RMT flooding the money supply with gold. You'll be paying 10k for your fucking shitty subligar.

1,000 a month for everyone in the United States. That's about 320 million people, but for the sake of this discussion we'll use half of that, to exclude very young children, the very old, and the people who are rich enough to not need this (((handout))), so we'll say 160 million.

160,000,000 people receiving a handout of 1,000 a month. This is a monthly bill of 160 billion dollars. If you seized the entire net worth of the people listed in your post and distributed it, you might have enough money to fund this for about 2 or 3 months. What happens then?

I don't think these types of realities are going to occur. Think about how many jobs there are right now, in developed countries. There's about 2/3 of the US doing shit tier jobs. There will always be these kinds of jobs. Most of the shit jobs are already service related, and most of them will still be necessary with robots. Then you will have a bunch of labor type work that robots can't do efficiently, or that requires thought. Most of the higher paying jobs either can't be automated away, or are already complete nonsense positions where entitled boomers get paid to browse facebook and be incompetent. These jobs won't get automated, but they might get chopped at any time regardless, my guess is probably not until their even more entitled boomer bosses die and get replaced.
The robots will only serve to make things a lot cheaper and easier for everyone, and maybe shear off a chunk of shit jobs at the bottom, while creating a ton of robot maintenance jobs, which will see massive training centers open up to generate labor for these jobs.

The robots will initially serve to make things a lot cheaper and easier for everyone, and maybe shear off a chunk of shit jobs at the bottom, while creating a ton of robot maintenance jobs, which will see massive training centers open up to generate labor for these jobs.

the robots might be the saving grace for kicking the worthless-fed-money/wagecuck/gov'tcorp-pillaging can down the road for even longer. The robots themselves, while delaying the inevitable collapse with some deflation, may accelerate it in other ways. As corporations begin to invest more in robots as their workforce/security, this will sever the last pretense of a connection with the public, and the battle lines will be drawn clearly. The establishment money-power and their army of robots, vs the disgusting peasants.

The truth will be known after the police state terror truly begins, as GOOGAZON.GOV operatives are knocking on your door, and you see them curb stomping your neighbors, as their kids are crying "we could have prevented this", you will know in your heart, /pol/ was right.

If the value of the debt decreases, creditors (those who own the debt) will demand repayment immediately, probably forcing default or forced austerity which means nobody will want to loan money unless at a scalp interest rate. Downward spiral ensues as services and infrastructure are cut from the public sector, which have ripple effects in the private sector. Better hope you have a supply of food, gold, or ammo.

Best inflation rate is around 1 to 3 percent. It is inevitable with growth. Don't want it too much higher as that leads to unsustainable growth (the benefits from injecting cash supply into economy are quickly eaten up by diminishing returns and the risk that runaway growth will lead to a cascade of failures causing much greater damage in the long run).

The whole idea is instead of spending $x on social programs and the operation costs of evaluating if Joe deserves $1000 a week welfare, we give everyone $1000 a week. If you have a real job that extra income is just tax'd away after a certain point. So ideally it costs $x-y because you're not paying to evaluate if someone deserves help.

The genius part is one issue with welfare is if you get a job you lose welfare in many cases, so this encourages you to find a job and start working and until you're making over a certain amount you're getting a little extra money but working a job is still worth it.

For others it might encourage you to to back to school to get a better job since you get a bit of income. Others might start a business with less possible financial risk and part time employees will be easier to find.

It sounds backwards but if you think the state should provide safety nets like welfare (if not that's a different debate) basic income makes a lot of sense because you're actually spending less. It's like pharmacare in countries with single payer healthcare - you actually lower the total cost of the whole system and provide a better service. Win win.

And if they volunteer to participate in a cash-based, crypto-currency based, or barter system of exchange, your system falls on its face.

Likewise, it relies on a punitive tax system for those who have taken the largest risks. What stops them from taking their capital to Barbados? Enough high earning taxpayers do this and again your system falls on its face.

Your system does nothing to provide for folks who can't manage money well either. What happens of they burn their 1000 on horse gambling?

Capitalists and entrepreneurs are a keystone to the economic system. Without them, the whole system goes tits up.

A $1000 per month cash handout to every US citizen would cost $3.84 trillion after one year. It would of course increase the GDP, because GDP is calculated as a sum of multiple factors, one of which is government spending. We could print a trillion dollars and then set it on fire, and it would increase the GDP by a trillion dollars.

Ted Kascinski was ahead of his time. He realized the long term effects of automation and the dehumanizing nature of a society that places technology on a pedestal.

There will be a revolt of spirit, not of technology. What does an animal do when it's back is against the wall? It's only natural of course: either the technologists will win (either by exterminating or "enhancing" the Luddites, continuing on to become something other than human) or the Luddites win, we go back to telling stories around the campfire and we are stuck on this rock forever until we all die or the cycle begins again..

Either way is unappetizing.

It's a different argument to discuss if the state should provide social safety nets. Talking about basic income assumes you do.

The fact is right now countries spend $x on welfare and basic income should cost $x-y. So given the choice I would opt for the cheaper option that provides a better service.

Two points:

1. Yes, general healthcare robots will be a thing, but

Define "better".

We spend trillion in welfare with a population of 325 mill. (According to Cato inst., some insist our welfare expenditure is lower)

Roughing in numbers, that's $3k per year per person.

Your system would cost 4 times as much. Where is that money coming from? How is your system better?

There isn't a study, it's actually a tautology. Government spending is a component of GDP, so if the government spends $2.5 trillion dollars it will "grow the economy" (increase GDP) by 2.5 trillion dollars.

Most actual economists aren't dumb enough to say this sort of stuff outright, although this sort of thinking is behind a lot of the "immigrants are good for the economy" canards. (Even if they never work, the government spends money on them, which "grows the economy")

Military is very hesitant to hand over the guns of the world to a handful of virgins in a jewish computer room

Part of the reason our military is so dumb is because we keep the nerds out of the command center and keep the devoted and the shills in command.

Soldiers hate drones because it means they have no job and soon no reason to let live.

Drone pilots get made fun of, even tho they save lives. Theres still massive male human masculinity to the American military. Europe could have a techie coup with little resistance though.

Point is we didn't exterminate every previous step of evolutionary ladder as we moved up it.

We did not evolve from chimpanzees.
We shared a common ancestor (who is extinct).

We also don't have many homo habilis running around either (also extinct).

Austrolpithicines (also extinct).

In fact, most species go extinct at some point or another.
My point is evolution is an unstoppable force that leaves many species in the clay. Technology may accelerate that process (much like how fire and tools did with our precursors).

What is the price of a widget? Exactly the amount one more person is willing to pay for it.

It's the upward market pressure that determines the price of a good. Competition is the downward market pressure. By relying solely on the downward aspect to solve things you'd be doing yourself a disservice. By that logic, and assuming the purpose of a rational business is to make money, why aren't all goods sold at a penny above cost?

UBI is just a reverse tax.

Rich people and corporations do not send most of them. Essentially, it gets taken out of the economy and slows growth. Aggressive taxes on the rich and major corporations force them to reinvest. With UBI, you take that money and pay it out low income citizens who will proceed to spend it all, stimulating the economy because without demand, production drops. When too much of a country's money is not being spent, the economy stagnates.
>>
>>140304675

25%!? Silly goy, the money changed hands twice, so 25% of 20k is 5k plus 25% of 15k is 3750 so in the end we get 8,750 dollars out of that income, goy.
>>
>>140300276
Yes, let's create a technocrat elite with an unemployable underclass. It's what (((they))) want, UBI is the only way they can placate the masses. It's a system where they control the entire economy, subsidize the underclass with UBI, then get that money right back as they spend it with them.
