I guess you're right. All the other societies preceding us have cured poverty. Why can't we?
By the way, it's not that simple. Inequality is what irks people today. Those losing in the new economy see those winning and are quite mad about it. Hence, UBI is a policy to placate.

Everybody wants to keep climbing.
