GBI (Guaranteed Basic Income) is a social welfare program that will grant everyone an amount based on the GBI Standards of the NSC. Based on the standards applied, an adult will receive $1,150+$260/child. The child will also get $300 added to their account which can be used once they acquire a GIN. This may seem like promoting laziness, or discourage working, however studies will suggest otherwise. Instead a GBI is intended to give people a hand up, and allow them to pursue other things such as education, or the ability to look for a better job. Simply put, no one wakes up in the morning, and say “Living below the poverty line rocks!”. Living below the poverty line is not a goal, and this money is to help people. And for those that are disabled and not able to work, the GBI will give them the money that they will need to live off of while relying on other programs to help them make ends meet.
And let’s face it. Right now, automation is taking over. They are not only in the auto industry, but an AI system will be able to suggest stocks and investments in best interest of the client, and make the most with all of the information, and will likely do better than a fiduciary adviser. Most people won’t care who is suggesting the advice, but will take the one that best meet their needs. Automation is even taking over in the nation. The bank will have tellers, but ATM (Automated Teller Machine) takes some of the job of the teller, and processing transfers is all done electronically without any human intervention unless something goes wrong which rarely happens. I have even went a McDonalds, and instead of getting my order taken with a person in front of a register, I had to go to a machine, note what I wanted, and pay with a credit/debit card. I then waited for my number to be called. Imagine how many low paying jobs that those 4 machines took away!
