I'm more of a fan of Universal Basic Services, because money shouldn't really be part of the equation and it creates a tons of loopholes that can be exploited. Everyone should have basic needs guaranteed unconditionally. Food, shelter, healthcare, public transit, and education must be considered to be basic rights.

Deserve? No one is entitled to other people's labor.

Wait till you find out how jobs work under capitalism. Your labour produces a certain amount of value, then your boss appropriates that and pays you back a tiny portion of it in form of wages.

My boss and I agree on the value of my labor.

Good to know you agree with being exploited. Boots aren't gonna lick themselves I guess.
