      Well, this “eventually” thing wouldn’t be until we can automate away so many jobs that we simply couldn’t (meaningfully) employ a significant chunk of people. We’re not there yet. Though we shouldn’t wait till we reach that point to get some form of UBI available. It’s at that point where UBI would be critical and needs to be at a living wage level.
