working class

UBI is power redistribution from rulership to people. Working class politics failed us in that Trump's empty promises sold better, along with a fair dose of voter suppression. Technology is what will kill working class. UBI lets people create their own job without the desperation of political champions to tell them that everything will be alright, while firmly committed to the oligarchy that will destroy their jobs.

Need to reset politics into the individual freedom of UBI, instead of "working class champions", because money brainwashes the working class into the mouths of sharks.
