And how long before elected officials raise taxes? And how long before unelected officials add and raise fees? And how long before enforcers come to remove you from your premises “for the good of the community” to put in a boondoggle project for kickbacks?

There is a reason your silly examples work on a tiny sliver of the local economies in “villages” and “small towns”. Its because communism require trust or violence. In small state defined environments like your examples, you have both! Yay.

You are right, though UBI will never work. Period. Part of the reason is for the things you mentioned. But those are simply subset of a main fact. Most people look out for themselves first.

You want an even more corrupt third world nation? This is a good plan.
