I'm not sure why his motivation matters? Both of those are good reasons to advocate for a universal basic income. We should want people to be aware of the consequences of their successes and to try and alleviate any pain they caused. It's when people don't do this that all the "rich is poor" problems occur. |

I recognized this idea in in the last two sentences of my post. The biggest issue with this line of thinking is the diversion of scrutiny towards Bezos in the process. As another poster stated, Bezos is a beneficiary of basic income via Amazon. As an aside, we know why Zuckerberg is more focused on free Internet drones over Africa than basic income.
