They have done the math, if they can get enough people in important positions then they can do whatever they want without consequences.

It seems like a lot of tension around UBI comes from people thinking that it means the government is required to pay everyone $8000 per month and must flip society upside down to find the money. Just like medicare, the money it pays out is determined by how much it gets. UBI doesn't mean we all get enough money to live a luxury life, it's just a program to make sure that people have an income in a system that requires an income but can't provide enough jobs for everyone to have an income. The income is given proactively all the time instead waiting for people to fall into poverty or becoming homeless. If you work then you get both checks(job and UBI), if not working then you only get one check. Either way, you must manage your finances and pay your bills.
