UBI is the easiest solution we might be able to actually implement.
Taxing the billionaires would be better, but they have billions to spend fighting the tax.
Just like complaining that EVs are worse than trains, sometimes the only solution we can manage is the worst one, but it’s still better than no solution.
it could also be a stepping stone. tearing down the entire global system takes time and until then there still must exist an economy, if only for external use. so if citizens of anarchistan want to go abroad they need some currency, and just giving a national credit card or whatever obviously isn’t going to work.
