How else do you cope with mass unemployment from technological advances? The benefits system is massively expensive and implemented in such an inhumane way. Labour might well be trialling it for the wrong reasons but UBI is inevitable at some point so it is probably worth considering how it could work.Originally Posted by life on mars
There is very little evidence to suggest that UBI actually leads to the average person working less. Unless you count the snobby 'poor people are poor because they are lazy' trope as evidence.
