midas Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 In early June the Swiss will be called upon to make a historic decision.Switzerland is the first country worldwide to put the idea of an Unconditional Basic Income (of $2,500 per month for every man, woman, and child for doing absolutely nothing) to a vote and the outcome of this referendum will set a strong precedent and establish a landmark in the evolution of this debate. http://www.acting-man.com/?p=44981 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elgordo38 Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Sounds like a good thing unfortunately it will not be enough to pay lodging and food and the many "want" items that robots will produce. They better up the ante. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B1TcoinLife Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 At that price, what are they going to do about people who continue to get pregnant for the salary? 15 x kids + mum and pop =$42,500 a month lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The manic Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Good Idea - in England the Royals carved up the country and took everything. Yet they call petty criminals, blacks and scousers thieves! The thieves are the power elite - same in the USA but without the Royal Firm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They better up the ante. Good point. Should compensate for jobs lost through automation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lannig Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 (edited) Good luck living in Switzerland on this amount of money. Why do you think that the French departments close to the border are literally colonized by Swiss living there but working across the border? Cost of living is huge in Switzerland.
