Would Steemit Basic Income Makes Us Happier In Life? ^o^v
Let's try to imagine
If i told you that you could make a few thousand of dollars per month, no strings attached. I am not talking about those suspicious "work from home earn $100/ hour' scams which we tend to see online. I am talking about a policy that would give every person a small of money each month, no strings attached. This might sound like a crazy idea but it is really not. Netizen from many other countries have shown genuine interest in #stemmit. Even tech companies began to getting in on it.
The thinking is quite simple.
As Steemit brings basic income through #steempower, #blogging and #comment, we are raising the standard of living for everyone in society. There will be more happiness, less poverty, and more leisure time to spend with family. As Steemit makes everything significantly better then it is seriously worth exploring.
Let's not try to be dodgy and be open.
Some people say that the biggest criticism of the idea of #Steemit basic income is it would decrease motivation to work. However in my personal opinion it isn't true, we (people) want to work and earn more money than what we are already getting. It's not about just going to a job where you simply collect a paycheck, we are doing what we are passionate about in Steemit. Also... if everyone has money that guaranteed to them, there won't be so much stress and pressure to keep the job.
The problem is that the entire idea of money and jobs is based around artificial scarcity: you don't work, you don't eat. Even if there's plenty of food already made for everyone, and it's just rotting away in the store, then goes straight to the landfill.
And that's exactly the situation we're currently in.
The system of "get a job - sell your time - get money" is there so that your lazy ass will be forced to work for someone else's enrichment. That someone else is called a capitalist; they have the money, so everyone has to work for them to get some too.
In my view, a man becomes an adult not when he gets to the ripe old age of 18 or even 21. It's when he realizes that no matter how great his job is, NO ONE is going to pay him that salary he gets, unless they themselves make way more than that amount from selling the result of his daily labours down the line.
And the capitalist does that simply by owning shit. He doesn't need to trade his limited time on earth for money, he'll get it no matter what because the wageslaves are all working on his planatation no matter what he's doing or where he is.
Of course it's in the capitalist's interest to imbue every young man starting out with the understanding that "hard work" is what brings success, money and freedom. Sign up for your 9-5 like everybody else, bitch. Arbeit Macht Frei! Get to it!
