The worst off can keep their benefits (scaled up to match the VAT.) UBI is just an option for people who want to get off welfare and to help people from ever needing to go on it. Besides Yang's UBI plan gives more money to poor people than all of welfare. How then does it hurt?

The point of the
#FreedomDividend is not to live on 12k a month and just stop working, it’s to enable people to pursue previously non-viable methods of income (art, entrepreneurship, etc) by eliminating the fear of having nothing to fall back on in case you fail.Thanks.

The country isn't jobless YET. That is why we need this stepping stone. Human labor is becoming less and less valuable so this compensates for that. If you need more then the 12k you CAN apply for welfare and get on those programs instead of the Freedom Dividend. That is plain

@canadayvibes. interview people sleeping on the street and ask how they would feel about $1k/month. how the hell are their lives being helped by these vaunted social welfare benefits you keep talking about? freedomdividend is a huge rich-to-poor income redistribution.Thanks.

Anywhere we can see your work in regards to interviewing the poor. Have you ever posed the question if $1000 a month would help them more than their current benefits? You may not think $1000 is enough but I am guessing you are not poor. BTW neither am I so I am curious.

"replaced" - STACKS ON TOP "jobless" - freelancing isn't a job? Individual creative work has no value?

Fair, but then lobby for more. When robots are really doing so much, higher UBI must be affordable. My ideal starting point is $1041 per adult and $368 per child (per month). This matches Federal Poverty line. Nobody receiving it would even qualify for food stamps.

That’s the beauty of UBI, as automation increases we can adjust it appropriately. At this stage of automation, $1k/m is appropriate.

I personally make about 1200 a month with two part time jobs. Adding 1000 a month will allow me to make sure all my Bill's are paid. Now I can stop using the phrase "we dont have the money for that" we talking about simple stuff like clothes for my family and repairs.
