if it is VOLUNTARILY funded then I am all for it :) but if it is funded through theft and coercion then that's a terrible idea and doesn't help to advance humanity. I think dantheman (co-founder of steemit) recently wrote a piece on the idea of a basic income that would be voluntarily funded, so surely it can be done! we can be civilized! surely that day will come, no? :D
