 @7a98d510 I keep coming back to UBI, as it’s fairly simple in concept. Tax credits are often a bit messy, and I feel we need to greatly simplify taxes.

Basically minimize administration. Give UBI to everyone 18+ that’s not retired. No other tests or checks. Very cheap.

(There would be even more administrative savings if we got rid of insurance as well. What a rip off concept all around.) 
 @784e76eb If we're arguing about whether the UBI is administered by the IRS, the SSA, or state unemployment offices, we've already won.
