npub15th6y0m8c79aq5qg2arvpw955jr4c5cvvvvkrxz70tnh4n282dzq2a6nvx (npub15th…6nvx) That is an interesting point, but I don't think there is evidence to support it.
There has never been a capitalist system where there was a UBI large enough where people could choose not to work, so we don't know what would happen. Such a society is plausible as people could be incentivized to work from the prospect of more expensive goods that would be outside of their budget if they chose to live purely off of the UBI.
