I really do not understand what you think ‘right to life’ means, but in most civilized parts of the world it means that the government has a duty to make sure its citizens don’t die whenever possible. That is not something you have to earn as a citizen.
Why you think that’s such a ridiculous position to take, I have no idea.
And also why you think you have to earn being on this Earth when you didn’t ask to be put here in the first place is also beyond me. Who gets to judge who’s earned enough to be given the right to live? You?
I don’t?
You seem to think that ‘right to life’ means ‘right to defy entropy.’ It doesn’t.
I guess freedom speech isn’t a right because people in comas don’t have that ability?
The right to free speech is a negative right, in that nobody is forced to do anything to give it you.
What a UBI is asking for is the equivalent to the right to life as giving everybody a printing press is the freedom of speech.
Not necessarily a bad idea, but a very expensive one that maybe ought to wait until the planet isn’t dying.
