UBI sounds like keeping capitalism on life support after it attempted suicide (again).
I'd give a functional UBI system 4 generations before it's useless much like the minimum wage.
I'd give the revolution in the US zero % chance of success, which one is better?
I'd give revolution a greater chance of success than UBI coming without equal or greater social functions taken away to compensate. Revolution is practically an inevitability, UBI is closer to a dream.
