It seems as though the majority of this forum are capitqalism worhsippers, ceo worshippers, blame the poor for making stupid decisions.
I believe people in general have more freedom, rights and liberties under capitalism than they do under socialism. That's the reason I support it.
Capitalism isn't perfect but I can't say I've seen anyone point out a system that is better.
I've looked at the data, uncoditional UBI makes complete economic and social sense. A lot of jobs are "bullshit jobs" anyways which serve no real purpose. Most of the jobs are becoming automated anywyas so UBI is absolutely necessary or there will be mass revolution.
In the USA, UBI would likely be a slight variant of social security with a different name. For those familiar with social security they may recognize reasons why such a system might be untenable. UBI could work in theory if its design and implementation were improvements on the existing social security system. Of course, there aren't many who know exactly what those improvements would consist of which makes things difficult as most would not recognize whether it were implemented correctly.
