I actually just want UBI so every single working class can get the basic needs instead of the rich getting richer.

I'm pretty sure I'm in the ground, and not in a tower with this opinion.

Sure but right now that isn't happening and robotics dismantling jobs destroying income is real. We are focusing on idealism and not reality.

Wanting it is fine but advocating that it's the only solution right now is not.

B-but the billionaires will get angry you have your basic needs met despite it not hurting them whatsoever! You might actually not be a slave for a few seconds!

The pandemic showed us that people shouldn't have their income tied to the government.

The corporations should be required to fund public housing. No one pays more then 10% of their income.
