but but... AI is supposed to make our lives better. Better jobs. Masters of our destiny. CEO of an army of our own AI agents, blah blah blah.
If we don't figure out UBI now, the US is toast.

Obscure Reasons for a UBI
Advocates for universal basic income are quick to point out the main advantages of a guaranteed income.
But there are also little reasons that are just as good, but not talked about:

Would an universal basic income not increase inflation and require to increase taxes?
Have you ever done anything for money, that you're proud of?
@spockrocket It is so depressing. If we ever needed Universal Basic Income it is right now. The rich hoarding cash and taking it out of the economy that could fund this type of idea is a sin. #TaxTheRich #LetsTryUBI #UniversalBasicIncome
Who will feed your children when all the adults loose their jobs? The government? Where will the government get their money from once there aren't enough workers to be taxed?
I wonder how it will play out. I for one want to see a #UniversalBasicIncome so that we can all survive and re-adjust to the future of work or lack thereof.
What do you want to see in the future?
I agree 100% with this little clip on the education system 
If school actually thought what people needed to succeed, our society would be in a much better place right now.
That is why #UniversalBasicIncome is so important for you:
It gives you the time and space to choose for yourself. You will have the time to learn the skills that are necessary to be a success.
At times, I feel like hiding from what's going on in the world right now.
Then, I come across good news like this from Canada:
"The Canada #UniversalBasicIncome Pilot 2026 aims to explore the real-world impact of a #GuaranteedIncome on financial security, employment patterns, and overall quality of life."
Is the pilot perfect? Maybe not.
But it's a step in the right direction.

Gu Yoon-chul, nominee for South Korea's finance minister, calls for a review of universal basic income, stressing the need to balance fiscal sustainability with active government support, while also prioritizing AI and high-tech industry investment.

Keep Screwups out of the Work Force
Some people just don't have the skills to hold on to a job. It would be easier on the economy to put them on a UBI than inflict them on employers.

If #Democrats wanted to appeal to #leftists, they'd talk about #EndCitizensUnited, #RankedChoiceVoting, #UniversalHealthcare, and #UniversalBasicIncome, but they don't want to talk about any of those things because they aren't profitable for Corporations. That is a FACT!
I've been following the efforts of Comingle, a #universalbasicincome startup. They're a month away from private beta and possibly less than a year away from launching broadly. I'm supporting the effort with a monthly contribution, because I believe in UBI and I think this has a shot. Check it out.

Go Newark, NJ! 
[Mayor] "Baraka’s report shows programs aren’t about job security but about giving people room to improve. Recipient Jennymarie Idrobo [...] says the funds helped her replace her boiler and pay down some student debt."
The rich already have a #GuaranteedIncome from inherited #wealth. They don't worry about their boiler or student debt.
So why not expand #UBI to all of us?
