blamegame posted:right, a big benefit of the simplicity of gmi, besides being 'easier' is that there are fewer avenues for exploitation, racist implementation etc. I think you mean ubi, which is "everyone gets x amount of money from the govt". Gmi is means tested and means tested programs will always find sneaky ways to exclude undesirables. Plus means tested programs tend to be unpopular among those who don't receive them so they're politically vulnerable.

Hi everyone I'm the guy who thinks a policy whose result is equivalent to a 25% increase in U.S. mean household income would lead immediately to mad max. Please take me seriously.

rudatron posted:mean household income will be stable because you're funding it off taxes. My point was more that the effect of the policy is a nominal increase in income (since income is reported pretax). There's no actual change in the money supply with any redistribution which is why the inflation argument is ridiculous on its face.
