The failure to implement basic income in our domestic and international jurisprudence is an act consistent with genocide as it is a falure to maintain article 25 of the UDHR. Any social welfare systems that do not evidently guarantee all aspects of article 25 of the UDHR are deliberate efforts to inflict conditions, by definition, that bring about the physical destruction of that group.
