What's a gmi? Google was of no help

Guaranteed Minimum Income. There are many ways to do it, but the key is that everyone is guaranteed enough money, regardless of work status, to live a life above the poverty line. Minimum wage is pointless if we have a GMI because people now have an alternative to wage labor for survival. Companies have to pay a decent wage or people just won't work. Currently there is no viable alternative to working for most people so they accept incredibly low wages as a means of survival. Raising the minimum wage leaves a lot of people in various situations struggling and hand waves the issue of what if there aren't enough jobs available. It seems people can accept the idea that a job should have to pay a living wage but any concern about people who cannot get a job is somehow overlooked.
