Who will determine how much people will get ? How will it be determined ?
I fully expect if this is put in place in the US (doubtful), it will be equivalent to the current minimum wage, were people on UBI will be in sever poverty. With the rich getting richer by something like 25% per year.
Again I see the US heading directly into an economy very similar to an old TV show called "Incorporated". 99.9% of the population will live in poverty.
This is the cutest quote I have seen this year.
IBM in the US eliminated its severance real package many years ago, everyone fired gets the same amount, 2 months notice. This translates into a 2 month severance because when you are notified, you loose your system access.
Why 2 months ? IIRC it is due to a loophole in an old Federal Plant Closing Law. I am sure that loophole will be closed before 2028.
I wonder how many other large companies do the same as IBM ?
