Tantalus's Cupboard (TC)

A non newspeak term for Universal Basic Income (UBI).

When goods and services are technically available, visible in store windows, online websites and metaverses, but ordinary citizens can't access them due to shortages, rationing, price and an unacceptable social credit score.

Tantalus a Greek mythological figure, most famous for his punishment in Tartarus, was made to stand in a pool of water beneath a fruit tree with low branches. The fruit ever eluding his grasp, the water always receding before he could take a drink.
Carmen: "I just got my UBI payment, but it's barely enough for rent."
Beth: "Classic TC"
Carmen: "fml and f Tantalus's Cupboard (TC)"
