“This is straight out of the Karl Marx playbook — this is not out of the Adam Smith playbook," Dave Ramsey said about UBI on "The Ramsey Show" last summer.

If you were to confront Ramsay with the ludicrousness of Smith's "invisible hand" malarkey you'd probably stump him... he probably only knows a few quotes attributed to Smith and that's it.
