> My ideal solution would be a basic income guarantee
A bit of Econ 101. Structural unemployment is caused by income guarantees and minimum wages. This is why we don't do that, and instead use programs like EITC (a wage multiplier for low income people).
Your ideal solution has been tried. It sucks, and we have moved on to better solutions to income allocation.
I sincerely hope we move forward with larger income leveling policies, but I am grateful you are not designing them.
