@shannonpersists #Capitalism of the modern kind is for accumulating power while using people as leverage to build it for them and not give it to everyone

I hope that answers some of it - though I guess you knew but my point also is that "It is deliberate" and people expecting #UBI not to be ANOTHER cruel invention / version need to again look at news or history in the past to find how it can be anything other than the same... or at least find ways to guarantee it's not another moving of #goalposts down the line or #rugpull (many ways to say it and many ways it can be done).

And the being "a bum" part is very true and a kind of skewed ultimatum to do all this crap as job (travel / be unhappy / take crap) else get nearly nothing / have your life endangered.

#Slavery of sorts.
Even those with wearing suits.
