Countless people blame the majority of their suffering and failure on not having enough money. Why didn’t you do that or why did you do that? The answer is almost always: I didn’t have enough money. I couldn’t afford it. It is like we are all living in a state of emergency. Get money now or you will be as poor as bankrupt or broke or possessing zero cash. If you add to this people who are married and have kids, you are not the only one who is in danger. Young adults handling that kind of danger or pressure puts them under stress all the time. If you are threatened to be fired this isn’t just losing your job, but it is losing your ability to survive. You will not be able to buy food, and there are no animals or fish to hunt, or fruits and vegetables to gather. You cannot survive on your own now without money. Because of religion which primitively emphasized on being a good person by being generous and thoughtful, money has been associated with being greedy. And being rich has been associated with being a bad and corrupt person. Thinking of only yourself at the expense of other people, so you’re gathering all the gold and money for yourself and you are leaving all poor people behind to suffer and not afford to buy anything. As if it is a pile of coins or gold or money that you collect the majority of it because of your physical strength while the other weaklings fail to collect or gather as much so they end up being poor. The money is a gift from god and God is testing you whether or not you are going to give away everybody else their shares or you’re going to keep it for yourself, though in both cases you do not deserve any money you possess, it is just a gift from your God that you are not responsible for it, and you do not necessarily deserve it, you only deserve it if you give a lot of money to charity on a regular basis. This is not how things work since a long time ago. We do not collect money or gather money from a limited pile, we generate it. And it is about the flow of money. These issues or complaints or reasons that because of which people have some kind of intrinsic hatred toward money is based to a great extent on human stupidity that is to a great extent contributed to it by Religion. Money is not a bad thing, it doesn’t spoil people, it doesn’t defile people, it doesn’t corrupt people, and it doesn’t make people less moral. Money now is essential for survival. I am not mentioning a good quality of life because the Universal Basic Income will not even remotely guarantee that or touch that. It would be swallowed by stuff like rent and bill payment and it would be just enough money to buy food with it. Think of how much it will not be necessary to donate money to homeless or very poor people because now they get a universal basic income just like you, and they got a chance to look for a job to further enhance their financial states or statuses. There is no reason to be afraid of money. It is a good thing. If something bad comes with it it would be because of you or the person himself/herself, and not because of the increase in the person’s income or money. You are giving people a chance to not be under stress all the time, or be afraid to be fired from their jobs because that means they won’t be able to survive and their life would fall apart until they get another equivalent job. People could still make it even if they are fired or even if they got fired and this would not make them afraid all the time or under stress and pressure all the time, that was making them act like slaves all the time to please their employers, although they believe their employers do not deserve any of that good treatment from them. They are biting the bullet and forcing themselves to act nice against their will just to eliminate any chance of them losing their jobs because they are not what their employers want them to be exactly. How many times you hear a parent or a dad say: I am putting up with this only because I have kids. Not everybody could make money on the side. When they do not have a chance to reach and maintain financial security, they will accept a life they hate just because they have no way of obtaining any kind of money except their current job. The Universal Basic Income would relief them from that stress and pressure and inability to choose what they really want in their lives. You will not be able to do anything without enough money. You can’t think, you can’t move, you can’t buy food or look around for a job, you are depending on someone else until you get a regular pay check. Universal Basic Income would really mean that you have a chance to survive. Trying to make money one way or the other, through a job or whatever would be to increase or expand your income, not to make it not zero. You will still be able to survive and eat something until you get a job or your business starts to earn you enough. Also, that amount of money that is given through the Universal Basic Income will be spent every month. It will not hurt the economy because it will be circulating, and touching sources of production and means of production everywhere in the country, and this would enliven the economy. Businesses wouldn’t fail because people are holding themselves back from buying simply because they can’t afford to even try the new non essential product or service. Countless people think of buying stuff that cost as much as 1 to 4 dollars as expensive and they can’t afford to buy them simply because their income so far is zero or entirely consumed by regular or recurring bills, rent and minimum requirements of living every month. Businesses would flourish greatly because of all those countless people who now afford to spend from 1 to 50 dollars a month on stuff that is not a highest priority or that important or essential to their survival. Not to mention the possibility to make millenial people not reluctant to become independent and move out of their parents’ dwellings and be on their own and starting to support or provide for themselves as early as 18 years old or the moment they graduate from college or university because it would be possible instantly, and not only when they get a job that they are comfortable enough in it to be totally on their own, because now there is no excuse, with universal basic income any job may lead to you being able to totally support yourself and provide for yourself and become independent and be totally on your own now without feeling like a kid or without feeling entirely helpless.
