@PabloveSky Z pewnością popieram prawo do pracy, jeśli ktoś chce. Ale nie pod groźbą utraty utrzymania.
Do tego zmierzają coraz popularniejsze systemy gwarantowanego dochodu podstawowego.

"#NotreDame study finds Rochester’s #guaranteedBasicIncome program worked"
'“One of the things people are commonly worried about with this kind of program is that when you give people cash they’re going to be less likely to go to work and be less productive members of society,” Turner said. “And we didn’t actually find any evidence of that in our study.”'

It's weird how every time someone runs a UBI or GBI test like this, it always turns out positive. Like, I *never* see headlines saying "UBI Trial in Bumfucksburg, West Idaho Fails to Achieve Goals".
They always work, never fail.
It's almost like they're a good idea and we should move past the "trial" stage, hmm? 🤔

Here's my takeaway from the article:
>...spent two years developing a report which modelled an income-tested Guaranteed Basic Income (GBI)...
>...recommends a five to seven year federal/provincial demonstration project...
Another report. Another demonstration project. No action.
To be fair, the article authors seem as frustrated with the situation as I am.

United Way Bay Area has announced the launch of its first guaranteed basic income pilot program in Alameda County. The first payments of $3,000 went out to 100 families on November 18, and recipients will receive $1,000 per month for the next 12 months, with amounts tapering for the final six months.

Under the "Covid welfare state" : "For a brief period, and for the first time in history, Americans had a robust safety net: strong protections for workers and tenants, extremely generous unemployment benefits, rent control and direct cash transfers from the American government." Then it was rolled back overnight, by Republicans in control of the House.
Unfairly, Democrats were blamed for benefits lost.

When people have enough $ to stabilize housing, to eat, and to work at a livable wage with adequate child care, their communities will become safer and more stable. Guaranteed basic income, relief from medical debt and being freed from crippling credit scores will go a lot further towards creating a safe community than police with drones, encrypted radios and robot dogs. 8/8

McIntyre worked with RIP Medical Debt, an organization dedicated to helping eliminate medical debt in the US. https://ripmedicaldebt.org/about/#mission The Biden administration is also working on an initiative that will provide relief from medical debt, including having it removed from a person’s credit score. https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2023/09/21/1200834434/medical-debt-credit-score-cfpb-biden 7/8
