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?

    That’s not UBI, and might incentivise people to not work.

    With UBI everyone gets Eg. 1000$ a month, no matter what you earn or have.

    (taxes would have to go up to pay for this, which is fine, tax the rich)

      I’m pretty sure people living on $1000 a month would want to work to get extra income in most cases.
