I love the idea of UBI. I only wish there was more discussion about the reality that as soon as a UBI happens, the wealth-hoarder class absolutely will do every single thing they can to claw back that money. How does anyone stop them? I ask because they did it with Covid stimulus checks by jacking up prices, and they've been doing it by creeping up the retirement age, and, and, and.... We aren't really doing anything to stop them already. UBI seems like a band-aid in that context.

Discuss.
