A new school-system

I am a big opponent of the current enforced school-system. For one I think it is wrong to force children to learn things, secondly I think it is in-efficient. A child who wants to be a composer should study music, not mathematics, and a child who wants to be a mathematician should study maths, not music. In our current system children learn everything. Why not let the children specialize as early as they know what to do with their lives. I think that the only "compulsory" schooling should be to learn to read and write and speak english. After that, it should be all self-exploratory. A course in world orientation could be offered, where the children learn about the planet, our solar system, the galaxy and so on. Also about the society that exists on this planet, and what different professions exists. After that, the child should be able to stake out a course of action on his or her own. Whether that be to study or start working with something.

Why universal basic income is always affordable

Because in essence universal basic income is nothing more than taking from the rich and giving to the poor. In order to fund the universal basic income everybody pays a tax. The richer you are, the greater this tax will be. When the universal basic income is distributed everybody receives an equal amount, so the poor ones who paid little taxes to fund the universal basic income will end up gaining money on the deal, while the rich who paid more in taxes ends up losing money. So, no matter what the economy looks like, universal basic income is always affordable
