The Case To Raise UBI

Citizens simply cannot afford enough goods.

Satire · This piece uses humor and exaggeration. It should not be read as factual reporting.

As more Redmontians struggle to afford goods amid these uncertain economic times, redmont.wtf thinks we have finally found the solution -- increasing UBI. We've mentioned this idea in a previous article and it's time to revisit this idea.

Here's our proposal:

$500 UBI every 20 minutes, with no additional taxes imposed on residents.

How will we do this? WPR claims they've cracked the case: taxing the rich. But remember, one of the criteria is no additional taxes. UJP has proposed taking out massive loans and letting a future administration handle the tough decisions. Well, we dont wan't to brag but we have the better solution: making Netherite a human right. Hey that rhymes.

The government will simply print more money, and impose maximum pricing on Netherite to ensure it becomes widely accessible to all Redmontians. This will ensure Redmontians have enough money, armor and more without having to work. This means that Netherite miners won't want to work, but what we can do is require prisoners to mine Netherite and simply imprison half of our population for petty crimes.

Crisis averted.

Thanks for reading.
