Logically prove that their plan to end poverty would not work if implemented.

>Universal Basic Income
If it weren't for the fact that these people would go "Lalalalalala I'm not listening" to basic econ, they'd have to give every second grader in America $100,000.

It is NOT a universal basic income. Throwing money at people does not work. They will use that money to buy things which are not necessary for their life.
>If the people in the rural areas have access to money, then the goods and services that they demand will come to them
No they wouldnt, if everyone had the same free money to buy basic goods, why would someone bother delivering to some rural area when they could sell goods to someone closer

Its universal income limited to things the issuers of the cards deem 'necessities'. It completely ignores all the laws of economics concerning supply and demand, and proper human incentives.
This program is literally just repackaged communism. Its the age-old theory of "Oh hey I know, lets fix poverty by centrally managing the economy!"
Its shit.

I agree with some of their propositions, but they're making some huge assumptions on the equality of humanity.

No matter how uncivilized we see some people, we are all slaves. We work to live.

Just got back from a road trip. Passed through Wyoming. You'd go for 20-30 miles of nothing, then there'd be a lone trailer. Miles and miles of literally nothing with one lone fcker.
You're right Target & Walmart aren't wasting resources to bring shit to these poor fucks.

good arguments so far. let's keep this going. ribbit

Impossible to prove with the guidelines they set up, though anyone who has studied econ can prove it is inefficient and will hurt humanity in the long run

Into the trash it goes.
what's the tl;dr, i stopped reading because teh font was offensive.
>>79088438
I don't see what's wrong with a universal income. If people blow all their money on a new flatscreen and starve to death because of this, it's just one less idiot that gets a universal income check.
>>79088438
Even if we could somehow have access to a copy our universe and run an experiment in parallel and it showed the program was terrible, they would never give you the money. Meaningless challenge.
