Get rid of the whole array of benefits entirely, and give people a universal income that is enough to live on. Now, you can work if you want more money, or you can do something with your life that matters. Question is, how many people would just sit on their arses watching JK? |

The people who are already two decades into a Jeremy Kyle binge-watch will likely not change their behaviour even under a UBI scheme, but at least their kids would have a chance to do something with themselves rather than continue the generational unemployment.
I think it's important for us t acknowledge that UBI won't solve every existing problem, and nor should it, but it could set up the coming generations for a much more productive and happier world.
