You also misrepresent UBI as a condescending distribution along the lines of Oliver Twist where every citizen has to line up and kiss Zuckerberg’s left foot before receiving their generous and merciful distribution. It’s not. It’s a way to guarantee that no one has to starve, no one has to turn to crime to support their life, and that no one is pressured by a lack of money to not pursue their dreams. With a UBI any child, regardless of upbringing should be in a comfortable enough family situation to study and pursue their career. A scenario that is woefully untrue today.
