Let&#x27;s look at a specific policy, then, such as a universal basic income (that means no means testing, no policing of morality, no step-wise dropoffs in benefit as income changes).  Most of the working class would receive the same net income, or more.  There would be no more income-driven involuntary homelessness.  There would be less incentive to avoid working part time because UBI benefits would still be paid.  The UBI would be funded by the surplus productivity that results from automation and consolidation (i.e. professionals and corporations pay higher taxes).<p>What factors (emotional, moral, intellectual, cultural, derived from propaganda, whatever) feed into a decision to support or not to support UBI, as an example?
