Reply to comment by dumbass__stupid in eli5 what is the point of therapy? by dumbass__stupid

In a few words, is to get better, perform better, live better, happier.

Is it that needed? no cause people can live fine performing worse, living worse, and living less happy, etc.

In the end most of the times it makes sense cause it makes economic sense, spend x money+x time to perform better the rest of the years is cost effective.

Like running with deflated tires, sure you can run with deflated tires fine for years until the car goes bust but inflating them takes so little time and is cheap.

Or living your entire life without shoes, shoes are not needed but you perform better with them.

Reply to Private UBI by SantoshiEspada

good point of view

but the problem is the same:

  1. country creates UBI, does economic activity grow? does other metric of "happiness" grow which makes the workers healthier/work better? if not then it doesnt make economic sense and the country gets damaged and more since if other countries dont do it the impact is bigger cause capital would flee resulting in less economic activity, less jobs, more poverty, more death.
  2. companies create UBI for workers, which is like a share for everyone that they cant sell and will give dividends for them. That sounds like extra pay with extra steps.
    The problem is the same, x company gives extra dividends "for free"=higher salary just because. Which is good cause it will atract better workers, current workers will perform better. But that only works up to a point=worker wont be happy/work better at the same ratio increase as the dividend. So real shareholders will sell the stock cause it doesnt make economic sense if the dividend is too high , resulting in the need to drop the value of the dividend cause now the company is worth less.

It makes way better sense cause companies are with a better standing vs most countries which are riddled with debt+countries getting weaker by bad economic decision is bad cause geopolitics. So companies doing it is more real.

yes, its better to build pseudo-jails where you can help them by rehabilitation.

Either way the California way its the worst one cause they spend the most and get almost nothing.

so the same as singapore, they introduced mixed income housing cause going for low only births villas and favelas.

net positive then

i think limiting the access to it would fix that. Not open to everyone but only for those that are trying to fix their issues. +using Face ID scans
