Great video man and I think you have provoked a really interesting discussion about Universal Basic Income. For me I am not a fan of UBI. There are perfectly organic distinctions in our society, the class based system isn't an artificial creation, well what's left of that system.
In my country the obsession with equality and breaking down the old class order has resulted in much higher crime, abjectly lower moral codes, living standards shattered, the middle classes hollowed out and most people now struggling with their finances with the vast majority of young people never having a chance of getting onto the property ladder.
The whole UBI thing is a classic Marxist deception tactic.
The old social order has now broken down but it has only been replaced with new elites and the new elites make our society a much worse place. They have unleased untold misery on our society.
And I used to believe in this order, I thought that the whole equality, diversity and inclusion project was something wholesome and good and I felt compelled to sign up to it, not realising of course it is a profound deception.
As for Hive and UBI now this is where things get strange. As I have just outlined in great detail I am no fan of UBI. However, on Hive I would welcome it with open arms. I thought the blockchain and Hive was supposed to be part of the solution but sadly it too has been corrupted and lots of ugly things happen on it. There is no chance you can break the system either, protest will get you nowhere. Having principles won't get you too far either.
You can produce a ton of decent, intelligent and engaging content and get little to no rewards. It's all about who you know, not what skills you posses and what you can contribute. So on Hive where so few people hold all the financial power and where the situation is much worse than in the real world, sadly yes UBI is needed.
In that kind of system yes I would absolutely like to see UBI introduced. And you never know with some form of workable UBI Hive might just attract and retain real talent.
