Yet Canada continues to tax wages way more than the #1 source of wealth—rising land values

Is anybody really surprised that inequality keeps growing?

Working mom's plea for a better safety net

#BasicIncomeGuaranteed is working in Ireland. It's working South Korea, and is being set up to work in Scotland. It's time for Canada to be among them, let's enact #BasicIncomeNow to really build #CanadaStrong @mark-carney.bsky.social @avilewis.ca
Ireland's basic income for artists returned more than it cost, so they made it permanent.

Now Scotland and South Korea are following its lead.

BREAKING: Trump's billionaire Commerce Secretary says that seniors won't care if they don't get their Social Security checks — and that anyone who does complain is a fraudster.

Income stability is becoming more and more unattainable. This is not an economy that allows the majority of people to flourish, let alone live comfortably. We need a basic income. #basicincomenow #basicincome

CEO of Inclusion Canada calls for basic income for disabled people to match basic income for seniors.

Basic income already works for some -- let's build on it for all.

If everyone received a Universal Basic Income with no strings attached, what would you do with it?

Re-post with your answer, then join the conversation in the comments. We're curious to hear what you'd do.

And years from now, it will also not be considered radical for a country to prevent poverty and reduce economic insecurity and chronic stress for all with universal basic income. We can do both M4A and UBI, and it would make so much sense to do both as RIGHTS. It would be prevention AND treatment.
Medicare for All isn't radical.

What's radical is that we are the only major country not to guarantee health care as a human right. Every other major country figured out years ago how to provide health care to all at a much lower cost.

Please don't tell me we can't do the same.

The claim of collusion between the Democratic and Republican parties is serious, yet there seems to be no real authority investigating it. Given the unprecedented and sustained levels of inequality, it's concerning that thorough investigations into these issues remain absent.

1/ Democrats and Republicans are not rivals—they’re partners in corruption. They collude behind the scenes, and no one is holding them accountable. #EconSky

@mark-carney.bsky.social A Canada where people can plan, learn and contribute is a Canada that works for everyone! #BasicIncomeNow
"Canada faces a choice: tinker at the margins of poverty and precarious work, or build a durable income floor that lets people plan, learn and contribute."

I refuse to believe in conspiracy theories about the rich wanting to kill off a significant percentage of the population, but this along with heavily investing in AI with a refusal to get universal basic income going is the kind of thing that makes me second-guess myself.

To effect meaningful change in a society, 3.5% of the population (about 12 million Americans) must demand it. In 1933, the 2 million strong Townsend Clubs inundated Congress with their demand and in 1935, Social Security was enacted.

Another argument for #BasicIncomeNow
Disable people would be much more “economically active“ if they were given enough money to both survive and to spend their money on things that are not the bare minimum required for existence.
