It looks like it will become very profitable to be poor soon.
Does it sound weird?
Well it's not. Go on full welfare, which means "the state" pays for yoyr residence, your power and water bill, and give you a handout for food and consumables - plus since a computer, a radio, a TV and a smartphone are both required to have and a right too, …

The state will go ever deeper into debt as more and more people become permanently unemployed, and the remaining middle and upper class will demand the state force the welfare recipients to go work to get their dole.
Same tired old out-of-tune recipe for disaster as two centuries ago, and one century ago too.
You can force the welfare recipient to go do something. That will require an department to handle all those "jobs", which costs money to run. And inspectors/handlers, and there actually being jobs to do, and said jobs not taking away opportunity from real businesses, and all of this stinking pile will then be auctioned to private contractors performing this service for the state, á la Thatcherism.
And it will cost magnitudes more than just welfare on its own. And eventually it crashes, slowly, as the money runs out and the economy becomes more and more geared on keeping the grift going until it grinds to a halt and the respective nations has to go deep deep into debt with foreign creditors and banks, putting up real-estate and natural resources as collateral for loans to keep the liberl progressive policies going.
Eventually, you might get a nationalist dictator taking power in a coup. If he's the real deal, that nation will immediately be embargoed by the USUK. If he's a Zelensky, he'll be allowed to do whatever he wants as lontg as the capitalists can plunder his nation further.
I'm torn between western capitalist oligarks - feudalists that they are - having learned nothing ot the 1910-1950 period, or that they have learned how to do it smarter this time.
But go poor - officially - and leech off the system while doing everything on the side in the black economy will be the way forward for a great many people. That, or joining the state's gangs of armed thugs.
