    I am shocked anyone thinks the 1% will let a livable basic income alone.

    Minimum wage is the OG basic income. “Everyone will have to pay a living wage now!” They said, after negotiating with capitalists.

    Well how is that $7.25 treating you now wage slaves?

    The 1% will corroded any government, undo any reforms… all using the surplus labor value stolen from the working class.

    This is inevitable, any romanticized version of capitalism is merely on step on a stair case leading down to end stage capitalism.

    See yall at the last stop. Peace.
