Question: “I was somewhat interested in the topic of universal income, as it was discussed recently in your show. Living in Finland, I understand the philosophy of self-reliance and I support it personally, but as I am a lone island within an ocean of progressive thinking, I can hardly expect to sway the public opinion on social safety nets. The arguments for universal income are the following: 1. Streamlining support payment bureaucracy. 2. Make it easier to enter the workforce. 3. Potentially lower social benefit costs (or so some would argue).”
“If I cannot live in a nation free of these wealth redistribution schemes, should I not support programs that could possibly yield beneficial results within the Finnish Pseudo-socialist system? I understand taking something from others for nothing is wrong, but this is happening already. If there is a chance that this new program could streamline government organizations (remove unnecessary agencies), help people get into the workforce more easily, and basically not add to existing costs, would it not be better to allow universal become a reality?”
