Maybe everything will just be paid in time because that's the most valuable thing of exchange we have.

internutter and I both use variations on Time as a currency in our respective head universesesesesss XD

I've always loved the idea of UBI but more recently not so much especially since CBDC became a thing and now they kind of look the same level of I don't think I like this for similar reasons x_x

Sort:  

I just don’t see how landlords and opportunists won’t raise prices just because they know they can if there is UBI. If it doesn’t lead to crazy inflation (or surveillance lol) it’ll be great.

There was a movie or two about using time as currency. I forget the name though.

There will be at least far-reaching surveillance with UBI I think, it will be "necessary" to "stop" stupid selfish arseholes from being stupid selfish arseholes (there is literally nothing except a come-to-Jesus moment that stops stupid selfish arseholes being stupid selfish arseholes) but in reality only stops people that weren't going to do it anyway XD
