Petty bureaucratic tyrants had a rough time when the Roman Empire fell. When Han Dynasty China fell.

Parasites can't survive without a vulnerable host population. Less government = less easy blood to suck.

I'm not suggesting #ubi is something a healthy society should do. But sit down with your government's budget and a list of departments, programs and agencies, and rule a line through each that could be replaced with #ubi.

Its not just the #fiat money saved, its the scorched-earth destruction of organised vested interests.

The bureaucrats will never support #ubi. In any form.

Yes, but if you killed all the departments you wouldn’t need to collect the same amount in taxes and inflate the currency. You could simply shrink the government. There was a time when income tax did not exist.

Agree, but the problems are linked. You have to tackle both ends of the problem, organised vested interests will not cancel themselves
