#SouthAfrica is moving forward with #UniversalBasicIncome. We shall see how this goes--#UBI is an intriguing idea, albeit a contentious one.

#UniversalBasicIncome #UBI seems to work according to new #peerreview #research released by PNAS.

“The recipients of the cash transfers did not increase spending on drugs, tobacco, and alcohol, but did increase spending on food, clothes, and rent, according to self-reports. What’s more, they moved into stable housing faster and saved enough money to maintain financial security over the year of follow-up.”

Let's means-test less and give aid and #kindness more.

A study on #UniversalBasicIncome #UBI from 2020 is now peer-reviewed and published. The study gave $7500 cash to homeless people in Vancouver and compared their outcome versus a control group. The result was clear:

“The recipients of the cash transfers did not increase spending on drugs, tobacco, and alcohol, but did increase spending on food, clothes, and rent, according to self-reports. What’s more, they moved into stable housing faster and saved enough money to maintain financial security over the year of follow-up.”

Further, each person who moved into stable housing one year faster saves the city over $8000 per year, which makes this program cheaper than existing housing programs.

Universal Basic Income works. It sounds so obvious when you say it out loud, but: giving people cash lifts them out of poverty. We need to do that more.

As I return from the wilds of Kerry I am greeted by another victim blaming spin on the current capitalist hellscape "if you learned to live frugally like your post war recession and food shortage great grandparents then you wouldn't be whinging about cost of living". #CostOfLiving #BloodFromAStone yet the obvious way to fix it is like the elephant in the room. Globally pay people a #LivingWage introduce #UniversalBasicIncome and #TaxTheRich but that won't happen because they write the laws

#UniversalBasicIncome is the number one requirement to battle #ClimateChange... Drastic measures are needed, and job losses will be a result.

People will NEVER vote for this, if it puts them out on the street or give them a life with just a bare minimum to survive.

Until we are willing to heavily move resources from the rich and distribute, we will never do what we need to do.

My first post from #Germany for the subject #UniversalBasicIncome #UBI with the group account at #Fediverse @ubi

Hello!

@erkpod I've been doing some work on Care and Disaster and we've heard people talk in remote areas about how tired and burnt out (often literally) people are. I think it's time to talk about how we free up more capacity for all of us so that we can get involved in our communities in ways that are sustainable.
Maybe it's a #universalbasicincome or paid volunteer leave or... I don't know. But we need some structural changes!
