Right now we have a system that takes care of the elderly with pensions because they worked during their lives so they deserve to rest. We take care of those without jobs, but just barely, and punish them if they earn too much with the welfare trap . We take care of families, because if you’re having a child, that’s a lot of responsibility and the government should step in to help… But what about the rest? What about those that do not want children, that are earning minimum wage because they can’t get more? What about the entrepreneurs that are forced into nonsensical jobs because they are not given the liberty to work on their innovative projects? How many more self-starters would we have under the BIG system? We can’t even begin to imagine the answers to these questions, nor their unintended consequences – be they positive or negative
