Step 1. Legalize all drugs 2. Tax drugs 3. Use revenue to fund UBI

As well as 1.elimnate the ability to own more than 3 residences 2. Tax ultra wealthy 3. Eliminate tax loopholes

UBI only works if capitalism is kept in check and social services are in place and properly funded.

Then there's about $200b from tax evasion.

It's all a drop in the bucket if we're trying to do true UBI.
