abstract = {Economic modeling of Universal Basic Income (UBI) often fails to consider how individuals' utility calculations shift with unconditional transfers. In this paper we further develop the model of our previous paper - The Implications of UBI on Utility Functions and Tax Revenue (Neumärker, B., Weinel, J., 2022). We contend that, while traditional fiscal models rely on an additively separable relationship between consumption and labor, the utility calculation for individuals influenced by UBI is better represented by a multiplicative relationship. This shift arises from the time sovereignty afforded by UBI, empowering individuals to become self-determined, creative, and intrinsically motivated. We explore the implications of the UBI-adapted utility function on tax revenue. Specifically, we analyze the consumption tax revenue curve under UBI (multiplicative preferences) versus a means-tested welfare system (additive separable preferences).

abstract = {In the discussion about a universal basic income, the dimension of conditionality comes up frequently in the context of work requirements for social security policies. In these exchanges one aspect that comes up frequently is the costs of a universal social policy. In this article we apply a conflict model to the case of a basic income that suggests incentives for a government to pay a transfer to reduce and prevent conflict. These incentives justify the costs of the transfer program. However, the property that reduces conflict potential is the conditionality to lay down your arms. We discuss the condition of obeying the law to establish peace and a functioning economy. We argue that this conditionality is inherent to any form of societal participation and is a prerequisite for any social policy. Thus, it does not reject unconditional programs. Further, we discuss ways in which the constitutional perspective and the New Ordoliberalism may justify such conditionality.

abstract = {The measures taken to contain the Corona pandemic have resulted in, among other things, massive loss of earnings. Many people are therefore increasingly experiencing an income crisis in addition to the acute health crisis. Permanent existential insecurity remains for too many despite the numerous aid packages. The principle of need-based assistance and the determination of need for the provision of
aid are proving to be insufficient. In the current crisis, earned incomes are affected most of all due to the measures taken. This leads to an asymmetric distribution of the crisis-induced burdens and thus to an asymmetric distribution of risks and burdens between performance-related and non-performance-related income, which exacerbates the redistribution in favor of capital income. The model of net basic income (NGE) shows one way to come to a solution of these problems in the crisis. Every adult person in Germany receives a monthly unconditional basic income of e.g. € 550 (calculated in this approach) during the crisis period. This amount is supplemented by the suspension of rent, lease, repayment and interest obligations during this period of income loss. The amount of money paid to each person is the net share of the crisis basic income. The household savings from suspending rent, lease, principal, and interest payments is the gross. After the crisis, the NGE can be raised to a full participatory BGE of € 1,200 to € 1,500 as economic momentum increases. In step with this, rental, lease and capital services are to be paid again in full contract amount.

abstract = {The rapidly expanding corona pandemic in 2020 has largely brought the world to an economic stagnation. The impact on the environment, especially on air quality, from almost suspended air traffic, idle industry and economic lockdown is enormous, but also the economic and social consequences of the crisis. This state of stagnation hardly appears to be economically and socially sustainable. However, we should ask ourselves right now what we can learn from the situation in order to question globalization, better intercept future comparable crisis situations and take the step towards more sustainable development on an ecological, economic and social basis. The paper identifies the areas of externality management to improve environmental quality, digitalization and network expansion as well as basic income as central concepts that need to be addressed in and after the crisis. Concrete concepts are suggested and discussed at the end of the paper.
