Wrong. If their basic needs are met they will strive to do far greater things. Only lazy, greedy Teapublicans and Ayn Rand addled Libertarians think that everyone is "lazy"; because THEY are. It's classic projection. Everyone else knows that those who have their basic needs met will focus their energies on accomplishing great things; new businesses, great art, music, scientific discovery, technological advancement. It's psychology 101; we all want to make our mark, create, and do great things.

THIS... you're so right. Another positive thing would be the INCREASE of moral attitudes, because people in "survival mode" are in a circumstantial, not idealistic, mindset. The reason elitist sociopaths, and greedy egomaniacs, continue to actually work against everyone being comfortable & dignified, is because they like seeing people grovel (begging for help, turning to crime, prostituting themselves, blaming immigrants for the economy, etc.) so they can feel empowered to control the citizens.

The comments are so backward and laughable that they would seem to be sarcasm.

Yes the comments are ridiculous. Either well meaning idiots or paid government shills.

I have seen what free money does to people. Our native population here in Canada receive money from the government. They have the highest rate of crime, lowest life span and live in poverty even though they get enough money to live well. Sounds like just what you would want to do to enslave a population.

Simply matching U.S. policy of the last 30 years.

No to be lost in the shuffle


At that rally there was not a black or brown face to be found.

A rather homogeneous society that is well armed

And they are requesting their wealth be distributed amongst their people.

I wonder what the corolations are?

So what happens when all the jobs are automated by robots, the rich people own the robots, and there isn't any work for the average person? That's what this basic income thing is supposed to solve.

There is another solution that appeals to the elites: DEPOPULATION. Remember the Kissinger term 'useless eaters'?

Sounds exactly like the American Indians down here. But here, they give them casinos.

They'll probably raise their VAT tax to 100%.

Money should come from .gov as 0% interest long term loans.

Easy come, easy go...

There are limits. When you trade portions of your life for money you automatically are more frugal and avoid squandering your efforts because this would require you to trade larger portions of your life for money. The Rube Goldberg {or should I say Robin Hood} funding for this fantasy will be its undoing.
