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?
It’s a nice idea, but given human nature we’re fucked. UBI might be implemented in a few places, but I’m willing to bet everything it will never actually be universal, and those who stand to benefit the most will be the least likely to implement it.
