Dorsey, who has built up a net worth of $7.5 billion, will sink $3 million from his nonprofit into the program, according to the announcement. The UBI program comes shortly after Dorsey's widely publicized pledge to donate $1 billion to coronavirus relief efforts.

Surely this time free handouts will encourage people to work hard, be industrious, and contribute to the American workforce in a meaningful way.

As long as it’s privately funded and voluntary, knock yourself out.
But we all know that’s not the goal.

Doesn't sound very universal...

So when does he pull the rug out from under the recipients?

So capitalist billionaire is experimenting with socialism. Let’s see how that works out for him.

Isn’t that called “charity” if someone donates money to a cause? I have no problem if people want to donate but don’t mandate tax increases to fund it.

Universal basic income with 3 million. I can already tell Dorsey it’s failed out of the gate because your experiment won’t be universal at all.
