I think it's actually more likely than not, and not just some socialist re-distribution scheme from the productive to the unproductive to buy votes either.

What is inevitable is best to think of it as a a band-aid on a much larger gaping wound that is the debt-based monetary system, which is inherently a game of musical chairs where Cantillon insiders are the DJ.

If all the debt was paid off, there'd be 0 dollars in circulation, because there's literally more debt than there is money to pay it off. The few original international banks would own literally everything if they felt safe enough to stop the music.

Obviously this is necessitates some violent outcome that is in no-ones interests, except those few thousand lizard people with deep underground bunkers that would false-flag us into nuclear Armageddon in-lieu of payment. So, the more plausible outcome is an engineered soft-landing with a new base money instead of letting the world fall into repossession.

Some form of UBI in this case would be a tacit debt jubilee, and will come out of a wind down of the financial sector.

We already know Bitcoin, by only accruing fairly, will force this downsizing of big finance. That's also why it's so important Bitcoin ends up in the legacy system in ways that seem icky to us, it's the trojan horse, or drinking its milkshake... pick your analogy.

Insurance companies and other forced buyers of fiat liabilities aren't actually people in the political sense, so they distribute the hit proportionally when this debt, otherwise known as financial assets, are destroyed one stimmy check at a time. Insurance companies are not so coincidentally buyers of the financialized bitcoin like MSTR notes etc, its how they thread the compliance needle to come out the other side of this.

Thinking about it in terms of productive wagies is antiquated factory lineworker minded thinking, that world hasn't existed in nearly 100 years. We're past peak financialization, because there can be no wealth re-distribution with Bitcoin, so the DOGE-Tariff-UBI psyop coming soon will be a controlled demolition of the legacy system.
