"Basic income experiments around the world, whether in South or North America, or in Africa, or in India, or in Japan demonstrate that when people have basic security – when they know they will be able to pay their rent and get food – they become more responsible, and actually spend less on alcohol, drugs and tobacco.
Such a kind of drunkard lumpenisation [...] has many reasons. It is a symptom of a social illness, of having dealt with failures throughout one’s life – arriving at the dead-end with no sense of belonging."
Guy Standing
