Universal Basic Income by 2035

A Feasible Path to $1,000-2,000 Monthly for Every American

Michael Mooring | Divinci AI Research Team

TL;DR: As impossible as decreasing military spending and closing corporate loopholes may seem, and as sappy as this sounds, Hope, Unity and Love are still stronger. It is as simple as a series of choices. Don't be tricked into division by a comment from a bot online. Stay true to the path of Solarpunk 2035.

The Opportunity

Universal Basic Income has been dismissed as economically impossible—requiring $3-6 trillion annually. But three revolutionary developments converging by 2035 make UBI not just feasible but economically optimal:

🔋 Technology Revolution

Fusion energy, AI, and robotics reduce living costs by $400-1,100/month through near-zero energy costs, automated production, and sustainable living systems.

🏛️ Government Restructuring

Strategic defense reform and AI automation save $2.4-3.3T annually while maintaining security and improving services.

₿ Cryptocurrency Innovation

Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and Proof-of-Useful-Work generate $700B-2.5T in new value while advancing science.

Three Pathways: Flexible Implementation

Rather than a single rigid proposal, we offer three scenarios based on political feasibility:

Scenario Monthly Cash Cost Reductions Total Monthly Value
A: Conservative
15% defense reduction
$600-800 $850-1,250 $1,450-2,050
B: Moderate
40% defense reduction
$1,200-1,500 $1,350-1,900 $2,550-3,400
C: Progressive
60% defense reduction
$1,800-2,000 $1,800-2,400 $3,600-4,400

Solarpunk Vision

Closed-Loop Living Systems by 2035:

  • Fusion Energy: Power costs drop from $200/mo to $50/mo
  • Robotic Construction: 30-40% housing cost reduction
  • Vertical Farming: 70% of vegetables grown at home
  • Water Recycling: 50-70% usage reduction
  • Solar + Gravity Batteries: 90%+ grid independence

Result: Self-sufficient households spending $1,895/month instead of $4,100/month

Critical Notes

Defense Accountability

National defense is paramount. However, unacknowledged special access programs (USAPs) operating outside Congressional oversight must be brought under proper civilian control—restoring constitutional governance while modernizing for 21st-century threats.

Tax Fairness

Closing loopholes isn't raising taxes—it's ensuring the wealthy pay what they already owe:

  • Partnership basis shifting: $100B over 10 years
  • Billionaire borrowing loophole: $102B over 10 years
  • Carried interest: $15-20B over 10 years
