If you think the food stamp/welfare/Medicaid/welfare - state is bad, just wait until universal

basic income becomes a reality! The potential for abuse is ginormous! People will get the money unconditionally. Who would work & pay taxes in order for all this money to be provided? Sounds like extreme socialism to me & of course that plan has never worked or ever will. Of course, all money needed could just be printed up, but that never worked, either.

And before long every public place will ask you to show your ID card
Except to vote of course. /sarc

The massive welfare bureaucracy, and its corresponding clients, will not just go elsewhere by the millions. Welfare is what they do, and they will be well funded into perpetuity by a basic guaranteed income.
