In before anybody mentions "universal basic income", I want to remind that it was exactly the major selling point of Communism: machines will raise productivity to such levels that nobody will even need money, as material products will be plentiful for everyone.

This grand vision was unsustainable and led to millions of deaths.

Universal basic income is no less unsustainable (even government retirement and pension funds, which require much less money, are struggling everywhere). I really can hope that this false promise will not lead to similar catastrophes.
