If “Y Combinator” wants people to have income, let THEM pay for it.

Well, it could be a savings to the government. Say you give each adult over 21 an amount of $40,000 per year, no strings attached. But that person can receive no other money from any level of government or charitable organization. Eliminate welfare, food stamps, WIC, section 8, earned income tax credits, etc. No extra money to be paid for children.

If you eliminate all the direct payments and subsidies of the welfare state, of course a lot of bureaucrats lose their jobs, too. Entire federal agencies would evaporate overnight.

The savings would be considerable. At least until the Rats in Congress came up with new ideas for welfare programs.
