I would be the poster child for why you shouldn't have a UBI because I literally have 0 motivation in my life outside of gaming, listening to podcasts, drinking, and going to Starbucks when they have a new drink.

I need work to not feel guilty about my apathy toward life.

Gaming is a human right. Gamers rise up.

And that's why UBI will be a disaster. Nobody is ever going to agree on the definition of "Basic".

Lol its not that hard, bro. We already have social safety nets in place that are basically a rudimentary form of UBI.

To be fair, TC did mention Starbucks. It's hard to be more basic than that, tbh.

The best part of waking up... is UBI every month.

With UBI, don't you have to at least work part time unless you want to live in the slums?

Basically.

It's enough to give people a little safety net here they don't have to stress as much. But 12,000 a year isn't enough to live. Even if you get married and it becomes 24,000 a year. Someone will need to work.
