I believe a basic income is a better solution than a basic job-guarantee because it provides individuals with the financial freedom and security to pursue their own passions and creativity. By ensuring a basic income, we nurture a society where people have the autonomy to engage in meaningful work that aligns with their talents and interests, rather than being confined to jobs that may not fulfill their true potential. This approach not only fosters personal growth but also encourages innovation and a more compassionate economy.
