Reading arguments for Basic Income makes me realize what it must be like to argue with a flat-earth proponent. I literally can't understand the frame of mind that leads to the belief that this would be a good idea, at least as proposed.

I realize this isn't a substantive argument about the issue at hand, and will be rightfully downvoted..but I think this might be the first time I've _ever_ been so daunted by the ridiculousness of an idea, that I can't begin to formulate arguments against it, solely because I can't tell how to frame the argument.
