These kinds of cartoons break up the stream or articles there talking about the UBI and how we can convince people like you reading this now we should try it.
Steps to success:
- Take a class in economics. High school level should suffice.
- Learn why UBI is a horrible idea.
- Post only cartoons to the reddit
- Sell advertising space
- Profit!!!
- Get sued for copyright infringement.
- Lose it all!
- Pick another outlandish “cause”.
- Repeat from step 2.
I will say the first cartoon is somewhat disingenuous, as all of the frames up until the last are about the reaction of employers, whereas a UBI would be provided by the government instead.
Thank you both for your cogent and informative argument for and against UBI.
What is the alternative?
Economics based pay. It’s the only thing that works long term.
Universal Economics Based Pay. Haven’t seen that work yet, long or short term.
Don’t ignore the operative U-word.
One size does not fit all.
