There Is No Such Thing As A Left-Wing Universal Basic Income (UBI#2)
Why do we on the left support the Milton Friedman fix for poverty? We think: Maybe AI led automation will lead to a Leisure Society if we push for a left-wing UBI.
UBI is a Poor Idea, Not an Idea that Helps the Poor (UBI#1)
Universal Basic Income (UBI) is a reactionary Milton Friedman idea supported by many of us on the left. I critique real existing UBI point by point. In UBI#2, I will argue that there is no such thing as a workable or winnable left-wing version of UBI.
