I agree, I think we are reaching a tipping point where the economy so favors those with established wealth and corporations that UBI is going to become a necessity. It does not have to be a lot of money, just enough to provide people with a small cushion so they can take small risks to better themselves or afford the basics.

I think something overlooked by many is that without the small cushion of having family to fall back on if everything went bad or a nest egg, many of today's entrepreneurs would not exist. Risk for those whom failure means living on the street is generally avoided, especially for people with kids. A UBI would allow them to try and compete or at least live life without waking up terrified every day.
