We should stop measuring our productivity in hourly and need to go back to salary well paying positions, or everyone needs to share the costs with UBI instead.

Good luck convincing companies to change anything that won't make them more money. I think the only way it can happen is with UBI, hopefully funded by the hoarded assets of the few biggest companies and billionaires where all the money is getting accumulated.

You mean the people who don't think healthcare should be a right also would not be down with UBI? I'm shocked I tell you. Shocked.
