I&#x27;m also a bit skeptical, which is why there is a need for experimentation on the topic.<p>Aside from that:<p>1. You&#x27;d have the freedom to quit your job without fearing homelessness or hunger. Suddenly, you&#x27;re a lot less stressed.<p>2. We are wasting trillions on making new fighter jets or new wars we don&#x27;t need, surely we can cut those programs and then spare a few trillion for something more useful.<p>3. An open question, I think. The guidelines for poverty would likely have to be open to change in order for a UBI to work.
