    There’s an argument that ubi will make you reliant on the state (which will be owned by private interest via the network state…)

    Basically. The elites recreate society through who gets meaningful work and who gets an ubi and has to dance on TikTok selling products to the other group who has the money to buy.

    Who gets meaningful work = the producers. Those who ship. The rest get to be beggars.

      I guess I should say, those who own the means of production. Since it might seem like I believe the elites produce, which I don’t.

      I guess that’s why they’re trying to buy up all the farms. We really all need to have a permaculture vegetable garden and backyard chickens, ducks or rabbits
