    That is an excellent read. Although I've never thought guaranteed jobs were a good idea, I have considered the possibility of subsidized work (where "work" could include child care, care for the elderly, or volunteering). However, after reading the article above, it is very clear that a UBI is certainly the best option. Thanks for sharing!
