Comment by Dominique Plihon
Economist. Spokesman of Attac France. President of Attac France Scientific Council.
Hamon est peut-être plus radical, dans son approche, il cherche à proposer un autre modèle. D'où son idée de revenu universel, qui part du principe que l'emploi se raréfie, ce qu'on peut constater effectivement. Mais je ne pense pas que ce soit la bonne solution. Il y a une demande de travail, c'est un besoin exprimé par la population. Le travail, c'est la participation à la société, à la cité. Et la valeur créée dans l'économie vient du travail. Le capital, pour reprendre des termes marxiens, c'est du travail mort.

Could not verify the source URL because latribune.fr blocks AI WebFetch access (Claude Code unable to fetch).
Other checks:
- Author attribution: Dominique Plihon is indeed an economist and spokesperson for Attac France, so he plausibly would have given this kind of interview to La Tribune. The quote's content (Marxian framing of capital as "dead labor", emphasis on work as social participation, critique of Hamon's UBI from a left perspective) is consistent with his known intellectual profile.
- Vote alignment: The quote clearly opposes UBI ("je ne pense pas que ce soit la bonne solution" — "I don't think it's the right solution"), which correctly aligns with the "against" vote on "Implement a universal basic income".
- Year: 2016 corresponds to the Hamon UBI debate during the 2017 French presidential primary, which fits the content. Searched for more recent (2023-2025) Plihon statements on UBI but found none specifically on this topic.
- Relevancy: Quote is on-topic and substantive about UBI.
Marking ai_unverifiable solely because the source URL cannot be retrieved to confirm the exact wording.
