A digital image with a dark teal textured background and elegant serif font in cream-white text. The quote reads: “Universal Basic Income isn’t about charity—it’s about architecture. It says the foundation of a just society isn’t scarcity and shame, but trust and time.”

Trust, time, and dignity should be defaults, not luxuries.
