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. #UBI #UniversalBasicIncome #Pension #UniversalPension #NZPol Edited for spelling https://petrous.vislae.town/@Binder/112832419782451606

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 #UBI https://www.scottsantens.com/the-angine-de-poitrine-argument-for-ubi/

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. #economics #USpol #LandValueTax #SingleTax #UniversalBasicIncome #ModernMonetaryTheory #taxation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GonO5dEpnL8
