This is unfair, think about it. Where will the money for base wage come from? People's taxes? so if you lessen the amount of people working then wouldn't that lead to less tax money for the government? and also what about the people who are paying their taxes and working their asses off, then here comes the government giving away their hard earned money to lazy people. Not only will the government be bankrupt people will riot as well.
Even in wealthy countries, such as US and UK, there are many people living on a minimum wage or part time income. Food prices are rising and salaries are not.
