I swear you could introduce UBI and someone somewhere would complain about it not being left enough.

UBI is only surface-level leftist, it's distributing some of the wealth while leaving the important parts - property - untouched.

So yes, I and many others would complain about UBI. I've long held it's an untenable bandage slapped on the gaping hemorrhage that is capitalism.

If you know anything about first aid you know that slapping a bandage on is the first step to actually helping the patient.

"The real problem with this stab wound is it damaged their liver. Putting a bandage over the wound isn't going to solve that, what they really need is surgery!"

"We're twenty miles away from a hospital, we need to stop the bleeding or they'll die before we get them to a doctor."

"A bandage isn't going to save them. Only a surgeon will."
