Some of his ideas was too far out there. The infrastructure for UBI is still decades away. We can't even tell how many illegals are in a state. There's nothing right now to prevent abuse. You think a few people getting free food stamps is bad? People getting free money would be a hundred times worse.

Hopefully some of ideas will become possible in the future.

Right now we need to think of the present.

Infrastructure?? If you're going to steal from one group to give to another, the number of illegals is irrelevant, 100 or 100 million.

At The point you've determined this is OK as a society, things Such as increasing the tax rate from say 60% to say 90%, implementing wage caps on careers, or confiscating earnings past a certain amount while enforcing the same workload production aren't a problem.

money printed out of nothing at central bank, can't run out of it, politicians lie when saying they take from one thing to give to another.
