And his solution is universal income. Okay. Makes sense. Then he says, so we’ll give everyone $1,000/ month.

Really? $12,000 / year? That should do the trick for the average American?

This isn’t 1925. Bizarre.
The $1000 was for political reasons, as a number that a voter can wrap their mind around. And it's close enough to the number that is needed by a significant percentage of Americans to actually make a significant difference in their lives. It sounds sad, but there it is.
