ok i agree to this.
But then i do wonder, why take the extra detour over "labor should unite instead of letting business idiots take most of the value they create" (which i read as seize the means of production)? Why not just introduce UBI immediately?
Cuz you can't introduce Ubi as long as there is a parasitic capitalist class controlling all the wealth.
which is why we need a wealth tax.
Or drag them out of their houses and disembowel them but you know whatever works
There's still going to be production, and I don't think we should continue with the capitalist class extracting value and making bad decisions
If you introduce basic income without addressing that, you'll still have all the enshittification
