Great overview of why UBI is the best solution to American’s current situation. The chart of wealth inequality shows one iteration of the Phoenix Cycle, which produces a new social contract about every 80 years. When America was founded, we addressed unaccountable power, in the Civil War we addressed racial inequality, and in the New Deal we addressed wealth inequality. They’ve all crept back in, which is why that chart shows we’re experiencing a reemergance of populism.
