3 days agoUBI is 100% populist idea. It replaces targeted welfare directed at people who need it with universal one - which is a massive waste of money, and extremly unfair to the working class as it has to be financed with massive taxation.
Funny how Marxists love talking about working class being exploited just to nonchalantly drop UBI around.
IMO Universal Basic Income the second worst idea after so called “Modern Monetary Theory”
I’m talking in literal meaning as in “universal basic income” where some taxes collected from working class are redistributed to everyone.
