The freedom that UBI provides includes your freedom to refuse the oppressive burden of becoming rich and having to pay taxes in the process.
The more people who do object to the burdens of wealth, the easier it will be for the non-retarded to become rich in their place.
Paying income taxes is completely voluntary. Don't earn any/much income and you pay 0.

- alttab 10y agoThe parent comment suggested the burdens of wealth are somehow bad and we should all aspire to be BI paupers. At least, that's what it sounded like.
