The elites will go to great lengths to ensure you work hard so they can profit and keep the status quo. I’ve presented similar arguments and have had the VP of a FAANG (a friend of mine) argue that working is in people’s better interests, that it actually empowers them, etc etc.

I wonder if that VP even knows a single person who would be a net recipient under a UBI-like arrangement. It just sounds like the kind of comment that reveals a severe lack of understanding wrt. what UBI would actually be like.

To be fair, I don't think that most advocates of UBI know of such a person themselves.
