"Your prediction that basic income would eventually mean a total leveling of all incomes and your assumption that everyone would eventually do nothing are also fallacies (fallacy of the single cause? nirvana fallacy?)."
It's based on history and human nature. My point still stands and it's not a "fallacy"..which it seems you just made up on the spot because you don't agree with my reasoning.
I also didn't say that "everyone would eventually do nothing". I said that we would cross a threshold where the amount of people just getting a basic income would eventually outweigh the people working and putting money into the system, and the system would need to be changed by the government or it would collapse.
"it is about creating a long term stable society where member's basic needs are meet (food, clothing, shelter, medical care, education, security, etc)."
The best way to help someone is to teach them to go out and help themselves...not just pay for all of their needs and tech them to depend on the government.
