science@lemmy.world•$1,000/Month for 3 Years: Study Finds Universal Basic Income Reduces Work Hours but Doesn't Boost Education or Job QualityEnglish
1·2 months agoI just made a reply post where I’m convinced that NOTHING changes well being long term. And I think reducing outcomes to either hours worked per person ( that only matters to billionaires , that were once called owners class ) or to wellbeing, is disingenuous.
The main source of wellbeing should NOT even be tied to income. We should measure how much satisfaction people have going to kindergarten theatre or weekend lunches with friends. But economists and presidents don’t give a shit about that.
INCOME should never be tied to oppressive, biased and unfair market forces and rigged laws.
The only war that matters is class war.

3·2 months agoYep
This looks to me like a reflection of a couple of things:
Employment quality is beyond control of participants. Dispelling the notion that working harder or less harder gets you better or worse jobs.
Short term well being is tied to short term good, with a minor trickle into long term goods. ( Like you may get most of your extra money into higher quality juice/butter/bread and in the case that your refrigerator breaks you are more likely to afford a new one).
Wellbeing increases for one year and then goes back to where it was: there’s research on people impacted by major life changing events such as becoming wheel chair bound. Its findings is that people happiness dips temporarily then returns to their previous baseline. This research seems to confirm that happiness/wellbeing is a personal trait that can’t be changed long term.

3·2 months agoThat’s as informative as a news article. Since it was an institutional address I expected actual technical information.
I guess I need to chase the scientific article myself.

I would rather have a social network where there’s no click bait but until it happens I won’t spend more than 2 seconds thinking about what the headline means vs what it implies.
