UBI is nothing more than a tenant of communism and it always ends with more poverty...money “earned” from nothing always returns to its intrinsic value which is $0

Only Gold and Silver have proven to be long term stores of value and human labor. They are the only money that has stood the test of time for 5,000 years. "Money" as you call it is really currency and everything other than Gold and Silver is credit and debt.
The 3rd Central Bank in the United States is the Federal Reserve (Which is neither Federal nor has any reserves) and the source of all of the funding of the wars and socialist programs brought on by the Republicans and Democrats elected into office by a dumbed down populace.

Really, it is?
That is what happens when I read the views of Commies such as Milton Friedman...

Also to have a political system, dont you need a political establishment like a government involved.

TM4450, we agree on a lot....its just that on UBI we do not.
UBI coordinated via government where tax money is taken from one group and distributed to another group via the tax system (even via negative tax rates) is a tenant of Communism (or Socialism-light)...call it what you want, but its redistribution of wealth. Its government force...it will in the long run reduce freedom...and its a form of theft.
People are "entitled" to nothing. If one group of people are "entitled" to something, someone else has to be forced to provide it. Something doesn't come from nothing.
Based on what I've read about Manna it doesn't qualify as UBI, its just a marketing term to help the project gain exposure. I don't think it will gain traction, but I wish them luck.
Milton Friedman was a statist who believed in an authoritarian central government. In ways that matter to me, there isn't much of a difference between him, Republicans/Democrats & most politicians that call now themselves Libertarians.
I believe the majority of human interaction should be voluntary and free from force or threats of imprisonment from elected bureaucrats who are only accountable to special interests. Else we are all debt slaves and owned by the state.
