No one wants UBI.

UBI has to be the worst idea ever floated. Every time Sam Altman and the like are challenged about AI taking people’s jobs away, their answer is UBI. I can’t believe people accept that as an answer.

UBI is a ticket to serfdom.

The rich will get insanely rich and the rest will get scraps.

UBI is a ticket to serfdom but divisive printing to fund the 5% at the top and then something like 30% more of people that are gov workers or welfare families, that's fine.

And now you say NO it's not, we need to abolish the State. OR you say that we need socialism or communism.

And then I say good luck with that.

And that's it, nothing is said, nothing is added, no resolution is added.

If the democrats want to lose every future election, you’re right. They should focus on UBI.

If they want to win, they should focus on job creation, a more intelligent version of deregulation/pro-growth policies than the ones Republicans are pursuing, along with energy infrastructure, and housing growth.

Americans don’t mind working. They embrace it. But they want a fair system.
