We already have UBI, called Social Security.

SS is literally just UBI for republicans. It's about taking wealth from people not on the "in" crowd and redistributing it in order to buy votes. Lots of old folk are going to vote for RINOs next election to "protect muh SS and medicare."

The average person puts in $74 (including inflation and returns), yet takes out $96. Those extra dollars are coming from our pockets.

They keep raising the age limit too.

Sooner or later it's going to be 100 years old to qualify for withdrawal.
