> I want the ability to differentiate myself and earn more than others.

No higher aspirations?



Sure, I’m already doing what I love (programming) but yes I would like to be better and better at that while also providing as nice a life as possible for my family. My point is there is no level of UBI that would be considered fair in a for-profit world. Rhetorically should people in Wyoming get the same UBI as people in California? Or do all the people that don’t want to work move to the less expensive areas and those that do live in the nice ones? This doesn’t create equality, fairness, or satisfaction for the recipients of UBI
