[The national dividend proposal is] an anti-market idea that goes against market principles and is no different from socialist-style distribution.

Source_url (en.sedaily.com, Seoul Economic Daily, 2026-05-12) returned HTTP 403 to WebFetch. Web search strongly corroborated the quote: PPP Secretary-General Jeong Hee-yong criticized Kim Yong-beom's "national dividend" proposal saying "This is an anti-market idea that goes against market principles and is no different from socialist-style distribution" — matching the quote (the bracketed "[The national dividend proposal is]" correctly stands in for "This is"). Context confirmed: the proposal is direct cash payments to citizens funded by surging tax revenue from the AI/semiconductor boom, matching statement "A nation should fund a citizens' dividend from AI windfall profits." Jeong opposes it, so the "against" vote aligns correctly; year 2026 correct. Marking ai_unverifiable only because source_url blocks fetching; corroboration is strong.
