I see Yangs' UBI as different. It props up your 'capitalism the force'. Bernie and Liz's M4A is more the political thing. With Yangs' UBI, Capitalism never reaches the point where Marx predicted revolution.
everything is political, as is Yang's UBI just as much so as MFA.
not sure what you're getting at with UBI propping up capitalism the force.
that said, capitalism the force needs no more reinforcing than gravity the force.
that said, UBI only staves off discontent and distention as long as the proceeds are realized by the recipient as incremental gain.
capitalism the force will instantly try to transfer that entire $1,000 mo from the recipient to any non competitive market capitalistic entity that has the power to do so.
ie the electric co, cable/internet co, healthcare, where there is not market competition, and housing, where regardless of how much money is chasing it, the near future inventory of both rental and ownership units remains stagnant, so you would have more money chasing the same inventory, and capitalism the force in housing would instantly try and eat as much of that incremental $1,000 mo as it could.
as would healthcare, all for profit utilities including cable/internet, even non profit utilities, education, and anything else that is essentially a must have, but doesn't face real market competition or isn't scalable to accommodate increased demand, thus you just have more dollars chasing the existing inventory.
on things that aren't scalable or are monopolies, or are duopolies/oligopolies that behave as monopolies, and are essentials for everyone, consumers need protections from capitalism the force, just as we protect ourselves from gravity, as neither force stops exerting itself, ever.
by protections, think price regulation on healthcare, (which requires single negotiator as in Medicare), price regulation on utilities, rent control, increased taxes on non primary homes, etc.
and any and all such controls need protected from capitalism the force purchasing govt for the express reason of usurping any and all consumer protections.
MFA would need the same protections, to keep the healthcare/pharma industry from just buying MFA policy, and upping MFA reimbursement rates to what private insurance rates now are, or more, thus totally undermining any attempt to lower costs.
in the end, all consumer protections and solutions start with eliminating money from govt and term limits. (1 term).
which brings us back to a voter revolt, as an already bought govt can't/won't do so otherwise. (due to capitalism the force).
