Canadian Politics Today

That’s what it sounds like.

Do you think a lot of people are collecting government assistance when they don’t need to be?  How many?  How much is it costing us?

 Better to have an actual universal income and claw it back from people based on how much they make.  No more bureaucracies for all the different departments that hand out different monies to the same people.

I have no idea.  I don't think that the current system is humane enough, and I question whether Basic Income will address root problems.

I do understand the concept.  And I take it you are ok with the layoffs and displacements that will come of it.  I say this to show that it's a balance here... Welfare Queens are not a thing but cutting a cheque isn't always the best approach.
