Capitalists, when I say that people still deserve food, shelter, education, and healthcare even if they are "lazy" or can't work:
@RickiTarr damn straight. My most left wing opinion is that we should implement UBI as fast as possible, and that I consider someone being able to sit in a chair and watch Simpsons reruns for the rest of their life a positive if it means someone else can choose to make art instead of cleaning toilets.
If we had implemented a sovereign wealth fund using North Sea Oil revenues we could be in a position to implement UBI today.
Not that the current labour government would call it that but that's what it would be.
Opportunities Lost 🫤🤷♂️
