If the Social Credit system in China is working the way people have been showing on youtube, (I know not the best source), then if your social credit score is below a certain threshold then you can not travel, or purchase certain things, your consumer choices become restricted.

In a UBI system if it is run by a government organization, and there is nothing to prevent the government, what would stop them from saying you can no longer live where you live if you want to continue receiving your UBI? We are moving you into this city where there is public transport, and are taking your land and car to sell them to people not on a UBI?

It may not be the same thing as what happened in America in WW2, and people can say that it will never happen, but I believe it will. I do not think Americans have learned much from history and are thus willing to look past governmental oversteps such as the Japanese Internment Camps. Further back in American History there is the forced relocation of Native Americans. Americans learned nothing from those events either, as you can see it was repeated in WW2 with a forced relocation of a different group of people.

There is one thing Americans are good at, and that is turning a blind and accepting eye to the wrongs done by our government. If a government is involved in UBI, then that system is a potential new serf/slave system to those on it.

Just because something has happened in the past is no guarantee that it will recur in the future, if steps are taken to ensure that the possibility of a recurrence is limited.

China and its Social Credit system should be a warning for those looking at UBI

What's the correlation between these two?

The Social Credit System creates class or tiers of people. UBI will do the same thing. Both are controlled by Governments. Those were just a few of my thoughts on it and how I see it.

I do think with the change in the work force that this next one is going to be major and a stop gap measure will need to be in place. I think that there will always be replacement jobs for those that are lost.

Every change from one job skill set to the next needed job skill set has been wrought with doom and gloom, from farms, to factories, to internet, to the next revolutionary advance of mankind. We survived the industrial age, and we are surviving the communication age. Society, being made up of individuals, is capable of adapting. Governments are a little bit less adept at adapting than the people and society.

I would like to see a UBI system in place that works, but I think it will be highly unlikely in the near future.
