They'd still get to. Just because people get free money every month doesn't mean they'll be smart with it. It doesn't get a crack addict off the street, because they won't prioritize the same way we would.

In fact it's one of the reasons the conservatives would like this. For one everyone gets paid, not just a certain section of society. Second, they know what poor people are going to do with their money... Spend it. Which sends the money up the chain and drives profits for the owners of the world.

We'll still need a lot of the services. Money doesn't solve all problems.
