Universal basic income would destroy human purpose and dignity


Agree

  • Work provides meaning and structure
  • Free money enables destructive behaviors
  • People need struggle to develop character
  • Would create dependent population without purpose

Disagree

  • Freedom from survival enables actual purpose pursuit
  • Dignity doesn't require wage slavery
  • People naturally seek meaningful activity
  • Automation is eliminating jobs anyway
