It’s obviously a tradeoff, but there will be enough people to do the necessary work anyway, even with UBI, and no one else should feel pressured to do work to survive.
And if you look, I never argued that point. Ive never argued against the UBI. People are replying and making arguments against points I didnt make.
Someone was saying “People would do nothing” someone called bullshit, I said that there would be a “significant percentage” who would do nothing. (which I could have phrased better, “small but not insignificant” would have been better) because you already see this behavior in countries with social security from a section of the population and I was told to do my research.
I support a UBI, Ive never argued against a UBI but it has issues that need to be acknowledged, addressed or overcome if its ever going to become a reality. Pretending that it doesnt solves nothing, just makes you look like an idiot to anyone who genuinely opposes the idea.
