@ -15,10 +15,11 @@ Advantages of UBI:
- **Suffering of many people will be lowered or eliminated**. Simple as that.
- **We may actually save money** because the system will simplify a lot. Nowadays we have complex bureaucracy and commissions that judge who can get social welfare, who can get disability pensions etc. If everyone gets the money, we can save on this bureaucracy, commissions, on doctor examinations, caring about the homeless, maintaining special laws etc. If people become less stressed, mental health will also improve and we will save money on treatment of mentally ill people. Money may also be saved on organization of worker unions as they may become much less important.
- **People will become less stressed**, happier, will have security and as a result perhaps even become more "productive" (this has been confirmed by some experiments).
- **Criminality will greatly decrease** as it is directly linked to poverty, this will of course further save money on police, lawyers, medical bills etc.
- **People will become more equal** which will shift us closer to the [ideal society](ideal_society.md).
- **People will be able to do more important things than work if needed**, for example they may choose to focus on education for a few years, which will make the population better educated and therefore better.
- **Social security will suppress fear in people** and therefore make them less xenophobic, less militant etc.
- **Society will get nicer without homeless people shitting in the streets**.
- **Homelessness will greatly decrease**.
