This is a fascinating thread about the idea of a universal basic income. There have been many experiments testing a UBI in the world and people keep debating it....but in countries with a state funded old age pension, we have a massive real time UBI experiment....in the case of Aotearoa NZ for 88 years.
....so what happens when people turn 65 and get a universal basic income.... We live our best lives! Including stacks of volunteering.

I've been following @scottsantens@hachyderm.io for years as he's probably the greatest advocate for #UniversalBasicIncome out there, and this essay is one of the best he's written

Every word of Prof. Murphy's presentation here is equally applicable to the US.
Nine letters in three acronyms would utterly transform human civilization: #LVT #UBI #MMT.
We could do this virtually overnight, if we could just convince people of the truth of how economies actually function.

Ireland’s basic income for the arts scheme becomes permanent
"The scheme recouped more than its net cost of €72m through increases in arts-related expenditure, productivity gains and reduced reliance on other welfare payments"
