I appreciate your points but I don't know if i can agree with you. SBI is an interesting concept as well and depending on future steem prices could be a great project. I would love to have revenue steams apart from work that would mean that I could do things that I actually like. I would need to be doing something as I always worked and couldn't sit at home every day. I would actually like to work in the animal rescue center as i love animals and would like to help them. I do a small bit now but work 45 hours a week.

A lot of people wouldn't be of this mindset however. The town where I grew up has very little employment and a lot of the people have social housing and welfare. Thats suits a lot of them very much. Free houses and free money and people try to get as much as they can from this. Getting jobs would only mean a slight bit more income and they would lose some of the external benefits like free healthcare and travel. So instead they pass the time doing very little.

My main motivation is motivation. If people are handed things for free then there is no motivation to do anything. I like the idea of basic income but i feel that there should be work programmes to gain entry. Maybe 20 hours a week of community service to improve your area. This way everybody who wants is guaranteed the money and it motivates people to get out and do more while improving your area. If something is free then people have a lot less value for it.
