UBI would mean forever locking in autocratic control by the few owners, reducing the rest of us to depend on the graciousness of those who have time and time again shown they have none. An allowance is not a solution to the power distribution problem.

We cannot claim to live in a democracy while Elon Musk gets to decide whether our allies can use communications or close down entire branches of government.

You dont need incentives for the rich. You can just pass laws limiting their options.
