Frequently not the goal, but always the effect. I believe there are a fair number of liberals who actually do not understand the cause and effect here - because they are actually pretty dumb. But others who are smarter know it can do damage, but because it sounds nice, they know it will get them votes. Or that it will work towards getting support for a guaranteed annual income.
