There is a key component missing from this proposal: what benefits will be cut?   As written in the article: &quot;this national basic income would replace all other benefit payments&quot;<p>There are many cases where <i>unequal</i> benefits payments are considered politically, morally and ethically acceptable by the majority of society.   E.g. the blind, the handicapped, war veterans, orphans, victims of crime, volunteers...<p>For example in the US, the blind may deduct expenses from their income before taxes that others may not.   This is an unequal benefit that we collectively accept.<p>In Finland&#x27;s proposal, what will happen to benefits for special cases?
