Unconditional basic income is unfair and would bring chaos (with video!)

" Can you imagine what it would be like if every Hungarian citizen received money every month without any conditions, regardless of everything?" Tamás Schanda asked in the video, adding, moreover, that the basic income would not be tied to any other requirements, such as need.

What do you think would happen if everyone decided that they would rather take the allowance, not work and not want to look for a job? ” continued Tamás Schanda, who believes that the answer to this is chaos.

He indicated that many people would receive the unconditional basic income instead of their previous social benefits, so many targeted social programs would cease, which is disadvantageous. " If we were to introduce it, public spending would increase significantly, which would lead to tax increases and the country's indebtedness. In our opinion, work helps to get out of poverty," emphasized the politician.

He added that the government's goal is for those who want and can work to find a job.

According to Tamás Schanda, the introduction of free money would adversely affect the country's competitiveness and have unpredictable social effects.

He reminded that others have already tried to introduce an unconditional basic income: in the Finnish government's experiment, a randomly selected group received the basic income every month. However, the experiment did not fulfill the hopes of increasing employment, so the Finnish government decided not to continue.

The basic income is therefore unfair, because it would benefit everyone, including those who do not need support; a fraudulent scam, since those who really need support would not receive much more money than they are entitled to in the current system, " the state secretary emphasized.

He added that the unconditional basic income is also unfair because it takes away from those who work hard and allows those who don't even want to work to get it.
