UBI is there to save billionaires.
They're a shortsighted lot who don't recognize that workers are also their customers. If they stop paying us all, then there is nobody to buy their stuff. UBI is the way out of that for them while still having billionaires around.
It aligns with Democratic Socialists well enough, but not the seize-the-means socialists.
