Sorry, but I don't understand exactly what you mean.

It sounds like you're saying most people wouldn't quit, which doesn't conflict with my statement, which is that "some people" would quit.

If you want to try to dispute that, you'll have a tough time with me, since I personally already have quit, even without the UBI, and from much more than $100k.



I thought it was just a variation of "everyone will stop working!". If a few people stop it's not a problem. We need enough productivity to keep things going but working a useless job is a problem. Working for no reason and no purpose. Work for the sake of working. Work consumes resources, we shouldn't spend finite resources on things we don't need. You can just sit there and think of something to contribute to society. That is, if we are worthy of such flattery in your experience.
