Currently, the British government is struggling to curb runaway food inflation. Downing Street is heading for confrontation with supermarkets over a proposed voluntary price cap. Will the UK government find a way to address the cost-of-living crisis? Palki Sharma decodes

Inflation is an increase in money supply. The inflation we are experiencing now is the result of printing money for the pandemic and bank bailouts. There is no such thing as free money it will create inflation and become worthless.

[@Riggsnic_co]

The thing to me is, if you invest and have other income outside of dividends then you will be able to live off dividends without selling. Which means you can pass that on to your kids which will give them a leg up in life. $52k dividends received in 2022.

[@hermanramos7092]

I agree! That's why it is advisable that you have to invest while you still have a regular job or earning a regular income, and do it constantly. You still need to have something that will keep you going even if you're investing. Good financial planning and money allocation is the key.

[@martingiavarini]

Basic Income is just for food and shelter not fancy clothes or luxuries like holidays, drink or drugs. Basic Income is not a pleasant place to be. It has to be less than the social welfare. It should be cheaper for the government as they don't have to do any administration just pay it straight into everyone's account regardless of circumstances. You still have to be motivated to work.

[@allanchurm]

we dont have dollers in the uk its called pounds ( your video ) and the reason we have a problem in the uk is becasue the BOE keeps raising intrest rates well above whats needed and the companys have to pay more interest on the money borrowed so raise the price of goods to cover the extra costs. the goverment are trying the best to get money out of the population by fixing the price of energys ..so they get extra vat money ..and freezing tax codes. more the banks make. the more the governent can windfall tax them along with the energy companys.

HIYA! 😁 As a UK pensioner(state pension) I get £10,000 a year or £200 a week and I would love to get UBI because my income would go up 100%, of course by the time its rolled out I will probably not be here. This present Tory Government is doing a terrible job of running the country, Inflation is really hitting us poorer people, especially food prices BUT to be honest I can't see a Labour Government doing much better although I don't see how they can do worse. UBI would have to be a complete shift from what we have at the moment because the money flows upwards and the rich get richer and the poor get poorer, UBI would mean some of that flow reversing as it would be paid for by increasing taxation and the rich don't like that, and I can see them shifting up a gear to keep the existing system going by lobbying MP's and using MSM to rubbish the idea, I can see them calling it Communism or Marxism and trying to frighten the public. And the British are like sheep, as was shown during Covid, and if the BBC are against it no way will it ever be implemented!

[@cabbageswithcars9532]

the british goverment are responsible for all this inflation , being part of NATO they have supplied the kiev regime weapons to kill thousands of civilians in the east of ukraine for 9 years . basically only independent reporters covered the 8 years from 2014 to 2022 before russia went in to stop the killing . youre dead right about most of the uk population being sheep they just believe everything thing their told its pathetic . so they knock out russia on the back of a load of lies so thats cheap oil and gas out and prices rise while most of the population is asleep as usual some names if you want to have a look at what the uk has backed basically the 21 st century version of nazi germany . colonel douglas macgregor , larry c johnson , colonel richard black , scott ritter , richard medhurst , colonel wilkerson , the new atlas , eva bartlett , graham phillips , anne laure bonnel , tom , the duran , alex christoforou , christine anderson , patrick lancaster , the REDACTED channel , the jimmy dore show , the grayzone , telesur , judge napolitano , TFI GLOBAL , GONZALO LIRA , Jeffrey sachs . john mark dougan tour of azovstal the nuclear power plant and one of around 46 US Govt bio labs in ukraine . richard medhurst THE TRUTH Behind Secret US BIOLABS in Ukraine | Dilyana Gaytandzhieva

Lol the world doesn't work so simple. UBI will destroy the economy. inflation will go to high unimaginable. Nobody is going to do low-paid jobs. This whole inflation became a problem not because of the rich getting richer. its because of the poor getting richer. Its because of the free money being distributed during covid. There is way too much money in the market . If the government taxes the rich very high then fewer ppl will invest in the UK.

[@thetruth9116]

It is all by design. It is not about labour or tory. They are all freemasons and part of the same evil plot to destroy humanity.

U B I is the future , it was experimented in California & had positive impact on the recipients , AI is a reality & the impact is felt on the employment sector , robots will take over including driverless transportations , it will also effect the Govt ability to collect income tax since robots r not taxed , there will b adjustments made to make it work .

[@raijinenel3116]

Wow, I knew there was an IQ gap but for India to promote this as a good thing is another level

[@adiahheart9413]

Where would the money to fund UBI come from? What would the receivers of UBI have to agree on to get it? Give up some of their freedoms for a false sense of "security"? How would this not make the inflation worse? Anybody thinking at all?

[@sudhakarnayak1210]

You are asking the right questions in the wrong platform, ask it in the uk news channels. Nobody gives a shit if it does or doesn't. What my concerns are it will spread like a cancer to other countries and bite back on my ass. What I can tell giving out free stuff is never good, there is an example USA.

India needs the universal basic income more than any country in the world with "millions living below the poverty line" on a daily basis UK has that number only in thousands

[@WhiteBubbles]

India is running the food security scheme for decades for the people under poverty line. Fair price shops provide free grains and groceries every month in most states. Millions of students below poverty line get free noon meals at schools. Anganwaadis takes care of the nutrition of pre-school children. It is one of the largest scheme in the world which is not recognised by world community.

[@tabishfaraazchaudhary2971]

@@WhiteBubbles thats true, its not necessary for deeds to be recognised by the world authorities always. India has a huge number of NGOs and maybe lacs of people have alot of good will but still there is a huuuge amount of work that needs to be done still for the poor especially by the state and central govts. I come from Western UP, although the situation has improved alot there in terms of basic infrastructure in the last 20 years, alot needs to be done still for a state like that to be called "developed" to say the least. Thanks for ur feedback and comment though

[@SugSean]

The rise of AI and AGI technologies has prompted discussions about how to tax companies that rely on these services, with the aim of ensuring that the advantages of automation are distributed more equitably. Various proposals have been suggested, including a robot tax based on the quantity of robots or AI systems utilized, a value-added tax that compares the value added by AI systems to that of human workers, an adjusted corporate income tax that considers the use of AI or AGI services, and an automation tax based on the degree of automation in a company's operations. These proposals aim to generate revenue to support workers displaced by automation, through initiatives like job retraining programs or universal basic income. Although there is no agreement yet on the optimal method for taxing companies using AI or AGI services, it is evident that this matter needs attention as these technologies progress. By establishing a just and efficient tax system, we can help ensure that automation serves the broader society, rather than solely benefiting a select group of companies or individuals.

UK food inflation is the highest in Europe...but they had the most affordable food prices until recently so it's not even that bad. UK food prices are still lower than those in Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Slovakia etc.
