Why force people to work if they do not want to work and agree to a simple lifestyle? if we give 350 million people $2000 a month that means 700 billion a month, while the US produces 2 Trillion a month. This would streamline every aspect of life, as those who choose to live off the system dont clog jobs with bad workers, they spend the money on essentials, even baby's get $2000 so parents dont need to worry about having children and where the money comes from, and those wanting more are free to work or move or learn or borrow (UBI would not be considered as income toward a loan unless its for a house or car)

We spend more money on homelessness, welfare, healthcare, incarceration and maintenance than simply giving every US citizen $2000 a month or 700 billion a month.

yes 80% of people may choose not to work and play video games and youtube all day, but the 20% that want to evolve beyond + automation are more than capable of driving innovation, right now its the opposite and everyone is suffering.

why isnt money dispersment not a valuable roll in todays society where so much cash is generated and instead of distributed, its horded?
