My case against Universal Basic Income, otherwise known as UBI. Today, I'm going to be discussing some of the pros and cons I see to us moving into a centralised world where our governments are responsible for our very survival.
📰 FORBES ARTICLE: bit.ly/3sd3uDJ
In today's video, I'm going to be touching on a topic that it seems like many people are for. But for me, there are some underlying issues which I think need to be addressed. And really, one major issue: my worry that UBI will be used as a potential tool for more and more control over our lives.
What's possibly most concerning is that certain organisations see the kind of world I describe in this video as being less than a decade away. A world I'm not sure is the right world for all of us.

I am an RN of 46yrs in Australia. In July 2021 the WHOLE medical community of Australia was gagged & told do not speak out in a neg manner around the vaccines or we will de-register you. I expressed my concerns about the gag order in a post on facebook. I was reported anonymously to the Medical Board & de-registered in Nov. On Christmas Eve they reminded me I am STILL being investigated. What keeps rolling thru my mind is when I spent time in Cuba in 2008, and argued with our driver that Australia is a true Democracy. Wise soul that the driver was he argued that there is no such thing as Democracy is all an illusion / delusion

SO... what will you do if there's no job for you because automation has taken over? I agree the control issue is a huge problem. But you simply won't have a choice. The USA is already a failing democracy because the rich control the Government (particular the Republicans). People still vote so that's where Fox News comes in to tell you how and why. Perhaps IRONICALLY it's the corrupt Republicans who will end up pushing UBI which is the epitomy of the "Socialism" they rail against. And it won't happen all at once. You can't do anything about it now. What would you do? And what about this dynamic would shift to the point you had any control to dictate policy? We can dream of our ideas of Utopia but the sad fact is the future is predictable. (Don't worry too much because a man-made pathogen will likely wipe everybody out. Control of genetic building blocks in the hands of monkeys.)

@@photonboy999 Thanks for your reply. I do recognize that automation of jobs is a huge problem and I feel there needs to be some sort of balance between human labor and automated machine labor. For example, no one raised issue when automated bank tellers came out in the 1960s but now that we have self-check out lines at the stores and robots doing a lot in manufacturing we are seeing it's a bigger issue. What we need to do is educate people on using the machinery in the new economy and I genuinely believe nothing replaces the value in a good customer service person, clerk, accountant, lawyer, etc. Perhaps we can allow such people to use technology in a way that makes their jobs and lives easier!

Minimum wage and UBI is that this is a very large country and the cost of living varies greatly. Consider the "poverty level" or "living wage" or whatever in these terms: if you live in New York city, or LA or if you live in small town Alabama your cost of living varies. Trying to find some magic sum of money to fairly satisfy everyone's needs is impossible.

One thing that is said, is that with the growth of automation, the production will rise a lot but since the unemployment (and unemploy..able..ment?? lol) would also rise the prices would also decrease since the automation essentially reduces costs of production and drastically reduces or even halves cost of labour in a lot of cases. So the context is very different from what we have now, of course that's all in theory and i am always extremely pessimist about governments specially my government, BUT, the explanation i mentioned above made sense to me. But im very stupid and still trying to understand this stuff out.

I was in my 20's in the 80's and being able to just do as you please with nobody "watching" is something that I miss very much. It was very freeing. Nothing is free in life, and if the governments are pushing this, it's because they see it as benefiting those in power.

I think there's also another really big problem with UBI that may not even be addressed. If you earn nothing, want for nothing, you "value" nothing. That could create a catastrophic behavioral imbalance where narcissism and depression are the norm. We already see a rise in both of these things. Take away one's value in themselves, family, money etc. and you have a recipe for disaster. People need a purpose in order to survive.

One of the ideas I've seen is that UBI should be considered a starting point for all workers. You'll always have a percentage of the population that can't or refuse to work, we have that now and that's not going away. Eliminate the minimum wage because with UBI it isn't necessary anymore and pay workers what they are worth per hour. Since your basic needs (Food, water, shelter, clothing, medical care, education) are theoretically covered, all that money you earn stays in your pocket and can be used to buy luxuries. So even if you make less per hour than you would today, none of that money pays for essentials so it's all used to improve your life. Since people don't need to work to survive, employers will have to pay more for stressful and dangerous work because people just won't work those jobs otherwise. What's now gone is being forced to keep a job you hate because of the fear of not being able to pay your bills. So the power is now with the workers, not the employers So there is still plenty of motivation to work for anyone that wants more than the bare minimum

My Nana and Popop lived through World War Two and told me stories that I will never forget. They stuck with me and have always been in the back of my mind, leaving me with a survivalist mentality. I have seen disturbing changes over the last decade and do agree something is coming. As a mother of four sons, I have always encouraged them to know how to do things for themselves as knowing how take care of yourself during tough times is a skill that one day might save your life. I feel that as a society we need to realize that its time to go back to many old ways, and live within our means. That includes growing our own food. When seeing your family becomes a luxury you cannot afford because you are always working just to scratch by, you spend all of your money paying for the car that takes you to work, and the food to fuel yourself for that work is so expensive that you cannot afford produce anymore, something is very wrong.

rosetealatte 9 You are right. We must step back and learn the basic skills of taking responsibility for ourselves. A healthy survival depends on several levels of needs. Abraham Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs Theory is based on motivation. Our actions are motivated by certain physiological and psychological needs ranging from basic to complex. So, the basic needs, such as food, water, breathing, safety, love, homeostasis, and self-esteem must be met before the more complex levels can be reached. Unfortunately, today, a really healthy person is difficult to find; toxicity has become widespread just about everywhere, whatever we touch or eat or drink or breathe in. A blatant visual result can be seen daily, everywhere by looking at out-of-shape, fat, or obese people and the grotesque dis-eases, sicknesses, or simply undiagnosable or psychosomatic pain issues as a result. Sadly, this shocking phenomenon has been creeping into every age group, even very young children, absolutely shocking. Our unhealthy lifestyle has rapidly progressed to unacceptable and dangerous health levels of excesses in unnatural and toxic food items, including sugar and chemical-filled drinks, instead of plain water. Sedentary habits have overtaken simple daily required movements to overcome excessive stress. Lack of quality sleep has become a serious health issue. Stress has reached a grossly misunderstood and dangerously neglected phenomenon that can kill you and has done so for the last few decades. We need to go back to common sense and re-analyze our intoxicated behaviour to be able to become totally independent again and HEALTHY IN MIND AND BBODY.

Sometimes I fear for the younger generations who seem to have no clue about what is really going on. They have no concerns about loss of privacy or freedoms; seem to always choose the easy path over the 'right' path and don't think past today. However, when I see young leaders like yourself raising up and being the strong, wise voice that you are - I have hope for them. Never underestimate the importance of your role in this brave new world we must create. You have a gift for taking the boring and making it fascinating. For inspiring others to think a little deeper, make better decisions and believe in the possibilities for a better future. I live in NZ and have witnessed first hand the power of ordinary people over tyrannical governments. Genuine love, compassion, and concern for humanity will always win over evil. I am more confident than ever that the world that is emerging from the goings on of the past 2-3 years is a much wiser, eyes open and motivated world than it has been for a very long time. There are so many joining together to form self sustaining co-ops; to find a way to live outside the systems being created to enslave us. It is happening and I have no doubt the move will continue to grow. We do have other options. Thank you for your part in this Sorelle.

It should always be referred to as UNCONDITIONAL Basic Income, as that is how we can prevent bad politicians from using it as an excuse to gain more control over us.

Coming from a 3rd world, this comes less than the « urgent » issues we face on a daily. Sure, it would affect us to a certain level or even maybe in a really huge catastrophic level, but having UBI seems to be too far ahead from the decade-projected future when our own governments can’t even give anything to their citizens but instead take more and more from ridiculous taxes. People already don’t have jobs, our country’s best assets (e.g. agriculture) are not being supported but wasted, and the government just keeps on being lap dogs for « bigger countries ». It takes a long time to keep up in general, but hey, aren’t we also the perfect guinea pigs for so many experiments.

To implement a UBI, the economic output has to be large enough to cover the cost of living of the whole population, while only putting a tax burden small enough on the economy that it doesn't collapse. So there is a point that depends solely on a certain cost of living to income ratio where a government could in principle implement a UBI. Any economy where that isn't possible, is just better off as a completely free market economy. (for the developed economy as well, but that's beside the point lol) It's funny really lower cost of living makes implementing a UBI easier, but it also makes it less necessary. I believe without governments we won't need a UBI, because cost of living would drastically shrink while income would skyrocket.

Back when I was 10 I remember my dad talking about how eventually coorperations and the government would collaborate to provide universal basic income, but he also argued that it would most definitely be a tool to make people more reliant on the government and eventually would play a big role in an upheaval of our current system of government. He also had some choice words on population control, which he said would be guaranteed at a certain point after UBI is implemented. He said that they would likely engineer a disease, and he theorized that a test version would be deployed around 2019. This was in 2012. That being said, he also said he was confident that the military industrial complex would "stage" an alien invasion once we develop the technology to habitate other celestial bodies as a way to spark a type of "earth nationalism" and drum up more financial support for a newly implemented "space force" branch of the military. I don't like how he has been at least 70% accurate so far.

@virginiamoss7045 6 ай бұрын

As for governments, they can do whatever they want anyway, even our own, so that's no argument against. My worry is how the economics react; simple inflation comes to mind so that that payment amount is weakened and employers are tempted to pay workers less because of the extra support. All of which negates the value of UBI. Still, I'd like to give it a try to see what happens. In a way the same support can happen simply by taxing the hell out of the rich (as high as 90% like in the last century) and giving qualifying people a level of cash equal to a given basic income for the area they are in. That, of course requires a lot of administration while just giving everyone the same amount is simple, removing all bureaucracy. But that's not entirely fair; people in New York City and in rural south Georgia have extremely different economics to deal with. $1,000 in NYC is pocket change while $1,000 in south Georgia is a huge boost. You need administration to determine how to iron that out.

Not sure of proposals in other countries, but in the U.S., UBI isn't welfare, a handout or charity. In the same way as we don't think of the public library system as welfare even tho its accessible to all people regardless of their financial status. Its closer to a common good or right as a citizen - A freedom dividend. (Saying a UBI is like receiving a welfare check sounds incredibly derisive in the U.S., tho I recognize that in other western countries "welfare" means a country taking care of it's citizens) ["you could have a job on the side"] UBI doesnt seek to replace a fulltime job. Everyone with a career will opt to continue in their career. UBI wont make much of a difference to someone at the upper end of the pay spectrum, but it represents a safety net that no one call fall below. If your rich enough that $1,000/month wont make a difference to your life then use it to be generous and donate it to the charity of your choice. For the rest of us it represents the safety net that we should all have in a country that calls itself the richest and most powerful in the world. [list of Supporters of UBI] You forgot to mention that in the 1960's Martin Luther King Jr was also a supporter of UBI, and that Nixon almost passed it under his presidency ( he was holding out for more money from congress). [Worries about privacy & control]... A potential UBI isn't the problem. If your worried about control & personal information abuse, cancel your credit cards, delete your facebook account, and stop using Amazon, Google, Siri & Alexa.. your data is already being gathered and used and you've signed on to it.

I fear that UBI is not the problem, but our increasing ability of ours to automatize things and find patterns and predict actions.

Another aspect is that google-group can see way too much about each individual (search results, movement patterns, mails, contacts...) to the point that they got a good idea about our income, political affiliation and even our 6ual orientation. There are even attempts right now to predict crime and when it comes to predicting crimes from point of where it would be the most rational for a criminal to attack, it would be fine, but what if we pick on individuals that are mentally unstable, but haven't committed a crime yet? Lastly, we have the problem that some companies have more money than entire countries and that governments have less and less to say, whereas companies can corrupt most governments...

@@jet8424 How is UBI a prison cell? Look at generational welfare now and tell me you don't think that UBI will eventually become exactly the same thing. If you could view welfare as a self-made prison cell. Why not UBI? If you think the system is inherently broken, which is the underlying justification for UBI, then UBI is taxation or debt created solely for the purpose of keeping prices inflated, which has the goal of propping up the failed system. You give money to corporations, who give that money back to you to give back to them. Government gets inflated tax collections. Corporations get inflated prices, which minimizes competition. You get trinkets. It's a closed loop. You're feeding the machine that is harming you (eg. You are voluntarily walking into a prison cell made to keep you pacified and compliant with the system). The economy never finds equilibrium since your corporatist government, who under UBI would be bribing you to take part in the system, effectively has its foot on the scale. Given all that, it doesn't require much of a stretch of the imagination to believe that the system could end up being corrupted, and your UBI adjusted by your social credit score to keep you compliant with the system.

We have spent the last 300 years trying to keep our personal freedom and get away from a small group of people deciding what is best for everyone else. This would be a huge step back. I also think just giving people money drastically decreases its true value. When you don't earn something you take it for granted. Kind of like eating more when you are at the buffet, I think it is is a natural human tendency to overindulge when things are considered "free". I believe this "free" money would also worsen inflation, and give the corporations way too much say in how we live.

Virtually NONE of the 'wealth' in the world is 'earned'. Elon Musk or Jeff Bezos did not 'earn' billions, that was a consequence of perhaps SOME work, but most of it done by others and a weird mix of circumstances. So IF all such wealth is 'unearned', then why should we worry that somebody who is 'given' only enough to survive somehow is not 'earning' it? A cross guard works each day protecting children. Gets up early, spends all day in the cold or heat to help ensure children are not hurt or killed. That person is 'given' not even enough to survive.

Speaking of the WEF: What I find most interesting about Klaus Schwab is his predecessor, Günther Schwab, who was a former Sturmabteilung (Brownshirt) and a committed member of the NSDAP (Nazi Party) back in 1930. Günther founded the World League for the Protection of Life in 1960 some years after the fall of Nazi Germany. This vision was fueled by social Darwinism, aryan biased eugenics measures, and given the push-back he received- he switched gears into pushing for Nazism ideals by masking his agenda using ecology & a green movement to force radical change to justify the means of his more sinister plans of bringing about the 4th reich. Günther died around 2006, but made great headway in bringing about the 4th reich. His spirit lives on today with Klaus Schwab, head of the WEF (World Economic Forum) and leader of the Davos convention.

@amit4Bihar Жыл бұрын

What's the obsession with ubi? No wonder, billionaires are supporting UBI. UBI will ensure democracy is ended, it's back to feudalism and Flannery. Ubi is slavery.. Your income is dependant on the whims and fancies of govt. Will ubi keep up with inflation, i bet it won't. What is Actually needed is better wealth income distribution, that the productivity gains are distributed to the labour market and not only the billionaires. Unions must become stronger and more representative of public. Labour must become more powerful than capital. Keep fooling the masses with ubi.

The US Constitution and Bill of Rights is an amazing powerful thing…in USA such a UBI system would have to be subservient to the Constitutional Guarantees we have here…if UBI can pass the test in that regard perhaps Liberty can coexist with such a system…the scary thing to me is how effective the clever and screwed elites have gained so much control by using systemic dishonesty to meld their plans…if the truth is able to be involved in our future I’m optimistic…if systemic dishonesty prevails then it’s 1984 totalitarianism….GREAT WORK . You are amazing to do this stuff thank you for making a difference and working and thinking so hard !

1) They’ll have to close the tax loopholes for companies. If they get the benefits from the automation, they should pay into the UBI. 2) Do you really think hippy communes are the answer to billions unemployed? If so, then who cares if we implement UBI? If you don’t like any rules that come with it, opt out,earn your own money and spend that how you want or check out and grow your own food. The real issue is #1 above. The governments will pay the UBI, but corporations will fight tooth and nail to not pay the taxes that it will take to make it work. As long as the tax code is written by and for the rich, the balance will be broken and the working poor will always be begging for scraps.

Thank youuuuuuu. All the support for this video is so stupid. This girl has no idea what she’s talking about, and all this talk about WEF is practically irrelevant, since the modern concept of UBI actually predates these sort of institutions; analogous systems to UBI go back ~2000 years (the corn dole in Ancient Rome), and they were actually remarkably successful!

Ya not to mention the fact that Sorelle has taken advantage of all those tax loop holes with her own companies. She means well, but I don't think she's able to look at this issue objectively. And the idea that "living a sustainable life" i.e...growing your own food...would help you avoid any real future systems of control is very naïve.

In Canada we have already seen UBI soft implementation with the COVID support programs of the past two years. The result is division between the "essential workers" and the laptop class who nobody missed when they holed up in their ever more-valuable houses. The good news is we can watch clearly the people's preference for freedom. What we are truly asking about the future is life based on reality or a construction of comfort without purpose. I choose freedom.

@derekrank4572 2 жыл бұрын

when a person works a poverty job they are NEVER getting ahead...there is ZERO freedom in that situation as well...people would be better off working their poverty job and then having UBI on the side as well to make sure they have a financial safety net to avoid being homless.
