Good to see you again, Scott. I personally will give El Bucko:D Vigilante the benefit of the doubt in that he's a decent human being who truly cares about people and the planet.
The fact of the matter is we are dealing with enormous compexity within systems(Wilbers lower right quadrant) and unfortunately trust has been broken by the powers that be and the corruption they've enabled. It's not a good situation.
A UBI won't mean anything if the present misanthropic predatory mindset remains at the forefront of social structures. We need a new education system which teaches humanity to place value on other human beings and life forms rather than just seeing everything and everyone as objects of exploitation.
A UBI would work, IMO, juxtaposed to a new education model which teaches and is geared towards mastery and human potential, and then the UBI can lay the groundwork for setting up the success of such a civilization.
BTW: most of the infrastructure is already in place for such a civilization but a mafia ethos has taken over the planet.
This new education system must teach economics, ecology (a reconnection to the land), sustainability, and self-responsibilty from the earliest of age.
Kind Regards to you and Mr. Berwick!
