Why do you support Basic Income?
Europe answered...
Carlos - Spain
Hi!I'm Carlos from Spain.
I'm a computer engineer and I support Basic Income because
I don't want people to waste their lives
on jobs that could be easily automated
I like them to dedicate their lives to what they love
David - U.K.
My name is David Jenkins and I support Basic Income
because I believe there's enough wealth now to guarantee to everyone
the right to a secure, enjoyable and meaningful life.
There's no excuse.
Tadas - Lithuania
My name is Tadas and I support
Basic Income because it will provide hope
and justice for poor people.
Dorte - Denmark
Hey! My name is Dorte Kolding.
I support Basic Income because it will give everyone freedom
granted people won't go hide themselves
just because they don't have a paid job.
And to all politicians! Start thinking 'out of the box'!
Let's have Basic Income NOW!
Martin - Denmark
My name is Martin and I support Basic Income
because all people should have equal rights
in our common planet and its natural resources.
Basic Income is the only thing that can guarantee
a fair share of wealth that we all have the right to
ever since we are born.
Robin - Netherlands
I want to dedicate this video to my father in law
who redesigned this beautiful logo
for the Basic Income
and he died a few months ago
so he can't see how many signatures we have already
and how much money we've collected
and I hope I have a Basic Income before I die
in a few years or so.
Let's not wait 30 years or 50 years...
Let's do it now!
SIGN!
Dario - Portugal
Hi! I support a Universal Basic Income, because
it's a sure way to end poverty like that,
it does not disincentivize work like current subsidies do,
it does not humiliate or stigmatize those who receive it,
like current subsidies do,
and all the pilot tests say it works.
and...Waldir, Mar, Pedro, Fabio after a protest!
This is Waldir, this is Mar, this is Pedro and Fabio
and we support Basic Income because
we believe it's the biggest revolution we could have.
I support Basic Income because
I think we have the resources to eliminate poverty forever
so we should do it.
I believe in Basic Income bacause I think
it's the transition we need right now
to abolish poverty.
Now that we have automation and technology and science,
enough to automate most of the jobs that we need
that are necessary to our economy and don't fulfil people
and people want to be free to do what they like
to get fulfilment in life,
we need Basic Income to be able to do the transition
to a better world.
Be the change you want to see!!
