I’ve spent years creating this thread in the hope it would be a long-term valuable resource. At this point it’s 86 tweets long. Each tweet is about a different study that has something to teach us about what we can expect to happen when we all have unconditional basic income.

„Toothpaste Argument“ – Scott Santens takes up an argument by Goetz W. Werner
New blog post from me. I call this one the Toothpaste Argument for Basic Income in honor of Gotz Werner who inspired it. I included a link to a video at the bottom of it too that I also recommend watching.https://t.co/C4g0x9HZUH

„Is it most important to keep the supposedly undeserving from sneaking in? Or is the goal to ensure that as many people who are eligible get the benefits they deserve as soon as possible?“

„…problems with conditional benefits“ – non-take-up
Good summary of the problems with conditional benefits and why unconditional basic income is such an important improvement in this interview via @jacobin. This is a great link to bookmark and share with those on the left not on board yet with UBI.https://t.co/mHjJV75n0s pic.twitter.com/xtrwkaHHlW

„A choice of masters does not make a servant into a free person“ – und eine Anmerkung zur „job guarantee“
„A choice of masters does not make a servant into a free person.“—@KarlWiderquist
This is also my biggest problem with a job guarantee without #UBI. You cannot guarantee someone a job and call them free so long as what they need to live remains conditionally withheld from them. https://t.co/CM6F7qwiZD

„Would you describe Alaska as a socialist utopia? Because Alaska has had a UBI since 1982“
Would you describe Alaska as a socialist utopia? Because Alaska has had a UBI since 1982. Do you think their universal dividend has led to the enslavement and dependence of Alaskans? Would you also describe seniors receiving Soc Security in the same way?https://t.co/zCencM9e1M

…und, so könnte ergänzt werden, weil es Wertschöpfung höher bewertet als das Schaffen oder Erhalten von Arbeitsplätzen (siehe hier), das wäre eine ebenso wichtige Weichenstellung.
