There’s a difference between pilot programmes and full implementations

People can’t afford things as is and companies raised their prices just because so imagine how they’d feel with the excuse of UBI

The flip side is they raise prices anyway so you might as well have UBI

Exactly! They raise costs to increase profits even when their production costs go down due to automation and other system streamlining.
