  • I’m not sure I want this to happen. I’ll read the bill, but I’m not convinced they’ll do it right. For example, UBI is supposed to replace other need-based social programs such as disability, welfare programs, government housing, etc. The entire point is that the money from those programs, which collectively have quite a lot of waste, goes into UBI so everyone can participate in society on a more fair level.

    For example, I have a neighbour who is on some kind of government assistance. He gets very little money, and his rent for an entire house is $105/mo. With UBI, he’d get a full basic income, but his housing would no longer be subsidized, removing the need for a public housing corporation known for being awful and wasting money.

    I empathize with your story, but I’m not sure why it became about anti-women doctors. Men constantly have our complaints misdiagnosed.

    The problem is that most GPs aren’t very good. People who do the best in medical school often choose to become surgeons or specialists, not GPs.
