Let's say that basic income happens in the US at $15k a year per individual. Do you think this would satisfy people? You don't think eventually people would say that $15k year was inhumane? So long as some people have more jellybeans than others, there will always be the "poor" and unrest. mk, didn't you propose something like this to b_b and myself as we were having a beer in Royal Oak a while back? -a basic income that everyone received no matter what your total income was. Also, wasoxygen, I wonder what your take is on "basic income?"Wonder how long it would actually take this to happen in the States given today's political climate.
-This wouldn't happen in the states.
