One of the ideas I have been pushing in recent years to help alleviate the growing workforce shortage in New Brunswick is by encouraging older folks to stay in the workforce longer. On their terms - part time, summer, ad hoc, etc. but they could be an important source of workers for a number industries that are facing shortages. Virtually all of them have other sources of income so employment would provide supplemental income for things like travelling, etc.
UBI and get rid of all the programs. Allow people to sit like some want to and allow those who want to better themselves to as well. The federal basic personal amount of $13,808 seems like a good starting point.
