    I still worry that prices would compensate for the additional income simply for added profit. We see it already without UBI.
    I want to believe in UBI. How do we combat this?

    • Nah. The price will keep low to fit in with the UBI. If the price are too high people will simply not buy. It has even a positive effect on the salary. People will work for more money as you reverse the power. People will work but if it give them a good amount of money otherwise they will use the UBI. The capital can’t have capitalize as it does actually. It will be a lot less in favor of the worker. It change the entire dynamic on peut to see a worker, a price, etc.

      This is partly why the corporations don’t like the idea. They will lose a lot of power with a new actor.
