====== Universal Basic Income ======

Universal Basic Income (UBI) is a social welfare policy enacted on the ASEAN Motor Club server. It gives player a regular payment periodically (e.g. a few times per hour), and the pay depends on the activity as well as the player's driving level.

==== Benefits ====

Mayor Freeman’s proposal highlights several key advantages of implementing this UBI system:

- **Injecting Economic Liquidity:** By putting more purchasing power directly into players’ hands, we expect to see a more vibrant in-game economy. This means:
    * Increased trade and demand for goods and services.
    * More bustling markets and more opportunities for delivery jobs.
    * Overall economic stimulation across Motor Town.
  - **Improving Player Retention and Reducing the ‘Grind’:** This foundational income aims to make Motor Town more welcoming, especially for new players.
    * It lowers the barrier to entry, ensuring everyone can acquire essential goods.
    * Players are freed from constant money-making, allowing them to:
      * Experiment with vehicle tuning.
      * Explore the diverse landscapes of Jeju and Oji islands.
      * Participate more actively in community events and races.
  - **Incentivizing Active Engagement:** The tiered system directly rewards active participation, designed to:
    * Boost average session lengths and the frequency of meaningful play.
    * Foster a more vibrant Motor Town, full of spontaneous interactions and a lively community atmosphere.
    * Reinforce fairness, ensuring participation isn’t solely limited by the ability to dedicate vast hours to wealth generation.

===== Funding =====

The UBI is funded through donations and Vanity Vehicle sales into the Treasury.
