It’s much easier to stomacj than communism. I believe that UBI will be part of the forthcoming neofeudal system.
Rich people will operate private welfare systems that distribute money and housing to poor people. This will be a philanthropically funded version of the current welfare system, but with different tradeoffs made than public welfare systems.
Parents pay their children an allowance. The child must obey the orders of the parents or the allowance can be taken away. Most children exist in a such relationship with their parents and everyone involved is satisfied.
Under neofeudalism, the poor will be as children to the rich. The rich will operate intentional communities populated by their poor people. From the perspective of a rich person it’s like playing The Sims but with real people.
Here is how life under this system will be. You live according to the rules set by the overlord. The rules will be downstream from the personal values of their overlords. Most housing in these communities will be like current housing provided to welfare recipients. It will probably be a spectrum of Tent to Homeless Shelter to Studio Apartment to Small Multi Room Apartment to Small House.
Here’s a question to ponder. How much of a welfare state can the average oligarch provide to how many people under the economic conditions of the post-AGI era?
