Re: More socialism utopia BS...

Didn't get the AC Brexit reference immediately, I thought they were just referring to people less smart than them at first. Still rather rude and insulting, but that does appear to be the level for a fair proportion of both Leave and Remain voters unfortunately.
The situation the author of the article is in is one of the reasons why I don't think UBI as a replacement for all benefits would work. One solution does not suit everyone, equality is not about giving everyone the same benefits it is about allowing them equal opportunity to live their lives. Having experienced the poverty trap back in the 80's and being fortunate enough to have escaped I believe we need a better system, but I don't think UBI is it.
