Do you support a universal basic income program?
No, this will encourage people not to work and harm economic growth
It will be much harder for someone to drag themselves out of a bad situation and be able to get a job and focus on their work and be productive, when they are hungry, or sick, or cold, or sleep-deprived, for example, so Universal Basic Income can help provide the right conditions for people to do their best work. Even though Universal Basic Income can provide for people's basic needs, if they want anything on top of that, they would still need to get a job and work to make that money in order for them to be able to afford the things and the life they want, which is a powerful motivator.
