        It actually depends on what kind of money, at the moment in Suomi we have what we called unemployment benefits, and student grants

        Many unemployed people quit their shitty job or they are lazy to work. The hardworking people will be happy to get basic income on top.

        Basically taxes. I don't think there is another way. Otherwise borrowing from outside will be a stupid thing to do!

        We need to work on this in Afrika to avoid the embarrassment of our brethren in poverty and others drowning in the seas.

        citizens paying the taxes that support UBI report greater stress and less desire to work. UBI isn't free, it's $ redistribution.

        So is that born out in the study, or are you just stating that b/c you don't like the possibility of the outcome?

        study really small sample & more akin to extended unemployment benefits. Not probative of any policy conclusions

        When you know you have some dough to feed the family, you are much less stressed... this sounds like a given

        I don't think its possible to be done in Kenya. The jubilee party is using that vibe as a way to get more votes. Its still being tested here
