UBI doesn’t just give someone enough money to live: it removes enough anxiety that she can breathe, be present for her family, go about creating the life she most wants for herself & participating as a citizen in the life of the nation. It’s a moral as well as economic imperative

Welfare program has been around for decades and it hasn't empowered people, but enabled people. We need a better incentive, comprehensive & empowering programs than just simply distribute tax payers' money to people.

A family member has done fairly well whereas I have struggled all my life financially. They commented one day that they now hate going to the grocery store i.e. bare shelves. Got kinda angry. Try dreading the store your entire life because you can't afford what's on the shelves.
