BREAKING: Andrew Yang says we should stop taxing workers, and tax AI instead. That can fund UBI.
"We should try to stop taxing labor."

Basic income is a top issue this BC election.
Almost half of British Columbians have a Green candidate who signed our pledge to work towards guaranteed basic income if elected.
This would be a generational investment in BC's future.

Is your candidate on the list?
See every signer, read what candidates told us, and ask yours where they stand before polls close on Oct 24.

So interesting to see BC NDP candidates signing this pledge. Where has that support been the last 9 years?

We asked every BC election candidate where they stand on income security.
Almost half of British Columbians have a candidate on their ballot who signed our pledge to work towards a guaranteed basic income in BC if elected.
This is the investment BC's future needs.
Global BC Legislative Reporter and Saanich South candidate Richard Zussman has signed our Basic Income Pledge.
He's the first in his party to put it in writing: if elected, he will work toward a guaranteed basic income in BC.
Thank you, Richard. Who's next?

"The bottom line: Most Americans are working in low-quality jobs — and those with a good job worry about AI taking it away."
Universal basic income would mean being able to fully choose your job, and even create your own job. And it would pressure on employers to make better jobs, or to make bad jobs become better jobs, by paying better or having better hours, or simply treating people better.

Even human dancers are being replaced.
Honestly, kinda impressive but also sign of the times to come. Looking back, UBI will have been obvious -- no labour is safe.
Jamie Dimon says AI will eliminate jobs. It'll "probably" create some new ones. "It is what it is."
He warns that moving too fast could cause civil unrest. The RCMP warned Canada about the same risk in 2024, before AI job losses even started.
"Probably" isn't a plan.

With currently 4,000 driverless cars, Waymo plans to have 8,000 by end of this year and 20,000 by end of next year. Start UBI NOW.

What happens when work is no longer the main way people earn an income?
At BIEN Congress 2026, our own Ken Yang laid out a roadmap for universal economic security in the post-AI economy. Basic income is the bridge, to broad ownership as the destination.
