It takes money to make money, just as it takes a floor in order to stand. When people have a basic income floor, it enables them to surpass the obstacles that would otherwise prevent them from achieving greater heights. We at ITSA Foundation believe in the power of a foundation.

@AlexHowlettUBI Not helpful, Alex. Free money sounds like no taxes is involved, which then leads many to jump to fears about inflation. Yes we know that the govt creates money, but it also manages inflation via taxes, so yes UBI will involve higher tax rates not the same tax rates as now.
@DanielBikes_ Yes. In general, here's what happens. If you add a behavioral test, that will exclude those who don't pass it, which then has all kinds of negative effects for that person and also for society despite potentially fewer positives. Here is one big study: x.com/scottsantens/s…
83. A meta-analysis of studies done globally on the mental health impacts of cash transfers on kids up to age 19 found an overall positive effect on mental health with the caveat that making cash conditional vs unconditional can have negative impacts, especially on girls. "On…
Think UBI is about handing out free money? Think again. It's a universal investment in unlimited human potential. We can forge a world where every dream has the runway it deserves, no matter the person's starting point at birth. UBI isn't just fair; it's strategically brilliant.

I dream of intelligent societal systems. I wake to nightmares.
IRS: you owe us taxes Me: how much do I owe? IRS: you get to figure that out Me: can I just pay what I want? IRS: no we know exactly how much you owe but you have to guess the number too Me: what if I guess wrong? IRS: jail

Who said anything about printing $3.1T? Most UBI proposals - and all the smart ones - are redistributive. It's important to understand that UBI isn't universal *extra* income. It's universal *starting* income. UBI guarantees a floor of income, not a top up. Higher earners would…
@theUBIguy Uh uh. Putting $3.1T into the economy without a commensurate amount of wealth=soaring prices. No matter what “expert” you follow, we can’t just print limitless $$. Look around you. This mess was not caused by free markets.
There's no feeling like financial freedom. It's incredibly empowering, allowing people to bring better versions of themselves into their life, work, purpose, relationships, and community. It's in our best interest to ensure that everybody has some.
@scottsantens Everyone join the fight for a UBI finally, as human right
@scottsantens Doesn't a UBI mean *less* government spending? Wouldn't a conservative government like that?

Sometimes, the most revolutionary act we can do is to imagine a world radically better than the current one. UBI isn't just a financial model; it's an invitation to create a society where we all have the freedom to pursue our passions without the crippling fear of destitution.
