"Being poor is living in one long emergency, with no resources." An emergency doesn't ask if you've proven you deserve help first, it demands a response. A basic income is that response, a standing floor so no one has to survive crisis after crisis with nothing to fall back on.
Quote card with the Basic Income Action logo, reading: "Being poor is living in one long emergency, with no resources." Attributed to @Jay...777, said in a YouTube comment.
