I find it interesting that most people coming down against GBI do so under the assumption that coercion is the strongest incentive to work. I think it much more probable to look at GBI as separating the monopolistic part of the work market (if I don&#x27;t work I will starve) from the competitive portion. Surely more competition in the employment market is a good thing?<p>Even then, I still think it is the third order effects of GBI (the ones we don&#x27;t know about, or are to complex to model) that are most likely to cause massive societal upheaval. But then, maybe massive societal upheaval is what proponents of GBI are most excited about.
