The main reason I am involved in this as much as I am, at the age of 19 I was working fulltime & paying for my own education "So each day after school I was a cab driver working till the night." And I don't think this should be possible in the current society we live in, everyone says we all have fair chances yet coming where I come from my employers only gave me a chance to shut up and work, no education, no courses to follow "at least I can say I'm self-thought" you can learn lots of stuff for free you just don't get the papers it doesn't mean you don't learn anything!
Ps. sololearn.com actually does give certificates "making use of it as well so might as well advertise" especially since it's FREE :P

All I actually want to say is a basic income could provide things for some which are completely normal for others, like parents that can afford your education would of been nice "and I'm sure I'm not the only one" Shit happens all around.
Namasté.
