They tried doing a test run of this in canada iirc and it failed horribly.
If there's one thing guaranteed to change a leftist's mind, it's unambiguous evidence that what they're doing doesn't work.
Beliebe the Seance!
Gun control has entered the chat.
Decision making and policy development is supposed to be an iterative process were you identify a problem, develop solutions, implement, and monitor results. The monitoring stage identifies new problems and the process starts over again.
What's truly interesting (and frightening) about the left is not how they fail to properly monitor and course correct when they make policies, but how they're able to transform every failure into a justification to go further forward. "You're doing it wrong" is their answer for every real world criticism based on empirical data.
When universal basic income fails, they'll double down use that as an excuse to give people more money or more free shit rather than question the foundational reasoning behind UBI works in real life.
Nah, they tried in Ontario, then the fat retard Premier cancelled it halfway through.
Now you might say "good, that commie BS doesn't work anyway", but we could have proved it.
Now we gotta do it the hard way.
To be fair, provinces can't print money, so it was doomed from the start. Not that nationwide UBI isn't doomed as well, but they can paper over deficit spending with fresh money until the dam breaks and hyperinflation begins.
