UBI without some sort of partner program to de-commodity the things humans need to live (food, shelter, healthcare) and eventually things we need to live a decent life (education, recreation) would likely lead to a situation like in The Expanse where the “basic income” is truly basic, just enough to live off ramen noodle and rent a crap studio. What jobs there were would be hotly competed over since everyone wants more to life than microwaved noodles and playing the first Halo on a 20 year old Xbox.
yes but as the other person said…thats already an improvement over how some live right now. its a very low bar to set but one that has to be. and theres people who would gladly live a life like that. gotta say tho…im not one of those as i would like to travel

Living off ramen and playing video games all day would be an upgrade for me since I already kinda do that but I also have a job
