guaranteed basic income
This has been studied a lot of times and mostly there is usually 2 concerns:
- How you will finance the whole thing?
- How do people act when you give them extra money?
Now, for the first concern: I had never seen anyone even answer it theoretically.
For the second concern: there is a mixed results, some studies suggest that people productivity gets lower, others suggest otherwise.
I don't see this even applied in a small village.
Just to be clear, I am talking about the widely known UBI, there is NIT and even other universal welfare schemes. IMO, even other universal welfare schemes has their own set of unsolved issues, and very experimental and idealistic in nature.
Using something like Negative Income Tax?
The reason I am asking is because I had never heard of it being applied in practice, outside experiments and pretty minor payments.
I was not able to find a system that is better than the current one on my own.
That make me wonder if there is any other system or variable to change to get a better outcomes for us as humans and for the climate.
In the first part you say that socialism - the idea of taking care of people whether or not they produce economically - is not practical.
No,
Socialism: economic and political philosophy encompassing diverse economic and social systems characterised by social ownership of the means of production, as opposed to private ownership.
In the second part you worry that people won’t be able to produce and participate economically.
Yes, exactly which is based on the current economical reports and analyses, which all are currently saying that the number of new hires are very low, due to all businesses not wanting to hire, reluctance to hire.
Why do you feel that way?
Kindly, read my post.
Have you done any research?
I had search pretty lightly, but I was not able to find any suitable solution.
What have you learned so far?
At my current level of knowledge, I learned that there is not a specific system that I could find and believe in to be better than the current one.
OK, let us try again here.
Poverty and hunger.
How do you do that?
That is from my opinion, impossible to achieve.
- Human suffering.
- Climate Change.
