    Everyone gets some sort of income, but wouldn’t companies just subside the income by raising their prices?

    As someone planning on starting a B2B company, I don’t see a problem with that. If companies make a ton of money, tax companies more and redistribute again. The curve can be made to fit.

    But there’s a bigger reason for doing UBI: It’s cheaper and more effective than existing welfare. And more people will like it.







  • So I read through this, and unfortunately there’s nothing concrete. Every error has been corrected, and the errors that remain are opinion pieces which can’t be listed as a source on Wikipedia. Due to WP:RECENT, this means no place where Wikipedia refers to the New York Times as a source will be asserting incorrect information.

    This probably isn’t the response you want, but that’s the truth about their reporting.

    Edit: If you still want to try and bring it up, this is what I had written in my draft:

    The following article has been brought to my attention: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/13537121.2024.2394292#abstract
    
    While the issues raised in this paper tend to focus on bias, and factual errors were later corrected in many cases (which should be suffice due to WP:RECENT), the section of "Misquoting Israeli leaders" refers to multiple errors in reporting from the New York Times that remain uncorrected.

    (This is before I noticed the uncorrected parts are Opinion pieces, so I stopped)

    You can post it here, but you will probably be shut down for the same reasons I mentioned above: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard
