Why and how should quality of life be contingent upon employment?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (5 children)

It’s not. Please re-read my comment.

OK, I did. It still says what it did before. You state that UBI didn't significantly increase employment, and then equated that with quality of life.

and then equated that with quality of life.

No I didn’t. It would help if you would just accept what I am telling you is my argument instead of weak-ass gotchas.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

How is this supposed to be some "gotcha?" You claimed that UBI did not increase quality of life with your only source stating that it had no effect on employment. What does employment inherently have to do with quality of life?

I didn’t claim work is a requirement for QOL. Instead of addressing my comment, you’re hyper-focusing on a grammatical disagreement which is completely immaterial. Since you lack any substantive disagreement, I take this to mean you agree with my premise.

Since you're being so disingenuous, I'm just going to assume no argument you make us done in good faith. Fuck along, now.
