Rucker's Universal Basic Income Theory

Rucker's Universal Basic Income (UBI) Theory proposes that providing all individuals with a regular, unconditional cash payment can promote economic stability, reduce poverty, and enhance overall well-being. It simplifies welfare systems, removes bureaucratic barriers, and empowers personal choice. UBI can act as a safety net amid technological shifts and automation, potentially decreasing inequality and allowing people to pursue education, entrepreneurship, or caregiving without financial fear. Rucker argues that a well-designed UBI aligns economic incentives with social support, fostering a more resilient and equitable society.
