Let's create the conditions for a second Renaissance, let's have a Basic Income.

If other professions were paid like artists... #payartists
Artists are in a desperate need of a #basicincome

The society based on production is only productive, not creative. Albert Camus

[Andrew Yang🧢⬆️🇺🇸 @AndrewYang]

Artists have the same impact on a community as entrepreneurs. Creative arts account for 4.2% of GDP but have an outsized impact on community vitality and our quality of life. The Freedom Dividend would free up many Americans to pursue artistic aspirations. https://t.co/2EpxGhvQCE

Unconditional basic income has not existed for far too long. It's time that the primary reason people sell their labor is not simply to avoid starving to death. Every job being done should be getting done by someone who is voluntarily choosing to be there for reasons beyond food.

"The rise of psychiatry was funded by America’s Gilded Age industrialists. Their aim: to cast society’s ills as problems of individual "mental health."

@pennyanderson1 Thanks. The book has been added to our list: https://t.co/jVf8f3PYCL

It's time we reject the work ethic and replace it instead with a "worthwhile ethic," where how we spend our time is motivated by a sense of genuine utility out of a desire to create, help others, and avoid ethically dubious labor.

Unconditional basic income will unleash PURPOSE.

"COULD A BASIC INCOME REPLACE UNIVERSAL CREDIT?
A survey has found support for local experiments to explore paying people a #BasicIncome as an alternative to Universal Credit."

We need a Universal #BasicIncome...

Being a creative person with a day job is 90% spending all day at work thinking about this big idea you have and want to execute as soon as you get home, then getting home and settling in only to realize you just want to go to bed now.

"How many brilliant artistic works have never come into being because artists are forced into flipping burgers just to make ends meet?"

"If we could meet our basic needs without having to sell our labor to employers to survive, the arts would flourish."

"THE MOST SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE ARE NOT THE MOST TALENTED, JUST THE LUCKIEST, a new computer model of wealth creation confirms."

"Dolly Parton’s fund for families uprooted by wildfires similar to #basicincome"

“[...] the My People Fund cash transfers mirror some components of basic income, particularly that the transfers were provided without a means test" @DollyParton

"Quite an experience to live in fear, isn’t it? That’s what it is to be a slave."

Fear of poverty is not a motivator. It is a tool of wage enslavement. Unconditional basic income makes all labor voluntary. It is economic freedom for all.

#BasicIncome "[...] the sum has removed the fear of utter destitution, freeing him to do work he finds meaningful."

GUESS WHO IS GOING TO PAY FOR OUR #BASICINCOME.
Either that or we'll enter a new Guillotine Age!

On this day in 1969, it was reported #MoonLanding. In the same year the President of United States considered introducing #BasicIncome.
