Hello, I’m not that informed about UBI, but here is my arguement:

Everyone gets some sort of income, but wouldn’t companies just subside the income by raising their prices? Also, do you believe capatilism can co-exist with UBI?

    It’s an interesting idea but I’d like to see it tried somewhere else on a large scale first.

    You could cut down or outright remove various government assistance programs so there would not necessarily be more money for the poor, just not a bureaucracy to figure out if you qualify for this and that assistance.

    Yes, it could coexist. Not sure why you’d think it would not. I still want more than a cubicle apartment and cheapest food.
