The problem is being smart lands you in positions of power today but being wise has no value towards that.
Everyone knows UBI can’t possibly work but enough people who are or think they are smart will find every way possible to convince themselves and others it not only can work but it’s obvious why it will. Ignoring thousands of years of humans that said “no”.
We have a paleo-phobia problem today where for whatever reason there are a lot of people that are pretty sure the entire history of humanity has been wrong about most things and we are the fortunate ones to know better, today. Without ever considering that we are possibly just cascading our problems due to our unwise choices.
Regardless, history has shown that decadence is the end of a culture.
