and so universal income is exposed as a great ruse to get into everyone's bank account on a monthly basis, with that 'universal' income reduced by mandatory tax.

Another suggestion is a negative interest rate, that would take a percentage of every citizen's bank account each month. I foresee a surge in sales of gun safes.

Give away program to keep them on the tax plantation while the rest pay for it. Would be nice to see the govt dissolved or secession within the US. They don’t have the authority to lead. I’m hoping the US states break away and form their own countries.

“To pay every adult and child in the United States a yearly income of $10,000 per year, the government would likely have to cut most non-health social spending programs”
Gina Martinez doesn’t grok Democrats or understand woke politics and vote-buying in the USA. The government will NEVER cut those spending programs. It will just lard on more and more “benefits” like this. They don’t care one whit if it causes the USA to go bankrupt or plunge into financial ruin.

Deep state is moving people around within the States to change the politics. Handouts are an incentive. Pay people from the North East to move to Virginia and other states. It’s been going on.

You can add special deals at the banks in order to buy houses.

Wait, the math is flawed. How does one take £116 per month, yet pay £1000? Is this UBI means-tested?

A universal basic income in the United Kingdom that would give every adult and child £12,000 ($14,900) per year requires a negative interest rate of 2.5 percent per month, according to the Centre for Welfare Reform.Per month.
30 percent a year.
That would abolish private savings in no time. Then how will it be financed?

Before it was called “universal basic income” it was known as “welfare”
