I was once talking with one of my classmates and he said that in the future, there will be universal basic income implemented by entire world. I was not convinced at that time and thought he is just being stupid but given the layoffs happening and massive amount of unemployment, I am thinking about this possibility. What do you say?

    You know, everyone who I personally know who passionately argues that if you give people free money they won’t do any work has been a stay at home mom.

    Stay at home moms get “free” money from the spouse who goes to work and supports them.

    I would also argue that stay at home moms work harder than a lot of us who have full time jobs. I get to leave work and mentally check out, they’re “at work” all the time.

    Someone should point this out to the people who make this argument.
