“A pilot universal basic income (UBI) scheme is to be launched in Wales, the first minister, Mark Drakeford, has revealed.

The new minister for social justice, Jane Hutt, a close ally of Drakeford’s, will be asked to work on the pilot.

Under a UBI system, every citizen, regardless of their means, receives regular sums of money for life to cover the basic cost of living. Its proponents argue that it can alleviate poverty and give people time to retrain and adapt to changing workplaces, be more creative and become more active and engaged.”

Wow, I guess I’m moving. 
 

TBH it makes complete sense, we live in a society that is dealing with late stage capitalism. Having the majority of people poor and a small handful hoarding wealth doesn’t work.

I cook. I clean. I have good hygiene. I’ve been told I’m not horrible looking but if I’m not your type, brown paper bags exist. :gayhat:

Wow... This is needed everywhere. Nobody should go without. Just print more effin money and stop letting people go hungry or barely cover their rent. The pressure financial strain puts on people is immense.

I agree everyone should be given a basic income regardless and of course if people want to earn more then all by means they can. Having people on the street benefits no one, it’s so heartbreaking to see.
