European welfare systems are not BI because you loose the benefits if you go to work. They penalize getting a job hence people are disincentivised to get one. At leas legal one.

Indeed they're not, and BI has a lot going for it in it's simple incentives.

I just struggle to think that's the only thing keeping so many people passive for so long.
