What if “free money for everyone” became the norm—but the price was your freedom?

In this provocative episode of The Partovi Effect, Dr. Ryan Partovi, JD, NMD, MIFHI, and Mrs. Madi Partovi go deep on Universal Basic Income (UBI), AI, “wage slavery,” vaccine incentives, and whether we’re heading toward a Star Trek future of post‑scarcity—or a Black Mirror nightmare of total control.​

Through a powerful listener question, they unpack the spiritual, economic, and political stakes of UBI: from corporate profit and AI job displacement to the role of community, mental health, and Christian ethics in creating a society of “haves and have-mores” instead of haves and have‑nots.​

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• How AI, robots, and massive corporate profits could fund UBI—and why Dr. Ryan believes the money is already there.​
• Why many doctors fire “vaccine‑hesitant” families, and how managed care incentives and pharma funding may be shaping pediatric policies behind the scenes.​
• The spiritual and psychological case for UBI: from “wage slavery” and burnout to entrepreneurship, purpose, and the Christian call to care for “the least of these.”​
• The dystopian fears around UBI—surveillance, 15‑minute cities, social credit vibes—and how implementation could make the difference between liberation and lockdown.​

Hosted by Dr. Ryan Partovi, JD, NMD, MIFHI and Mrs. Madi Partovi, this conversation weaves Scripture, sci‑fi, systems thinking, and raw personal stories (including suicide, mental health, and radical resilience) into a grounded, heartfelt exploration of where we’re heading—and who we have to become to shape it
