It would just require taxation on a progressive rate that includes a portion where people earning no (or very little) money receive money as a negative tax bracket…
That’s it, we could do it tomorrow.
What were you thinking of when you’re talking about “automations” and “mechanisms”?
There’d need to be something that pays it out monthly or by weekly for budgeting, but that’s not exactly a complicated thing, infrastructure is already built up for that
Not only “could” it be done, it already exists - though probably not to the degree we could say such societies are “egalitarian” (except in a relative sense).
Automation in the sense we are able to remove all undesirable jobs. Mechanisms like forms of government, law, economic structure, currency, social structures etcetera.
Huh?

In that case:
Automation: none
Mechanisms: way less than we invented to maintain wealth inequality
If anything, it would drastically simplify everything
