No. Absolutely no. UBI is Socialism under a different name. Why do people keep bringing up this topic? Why do people want the government to do everything for them? They are spectacularly sucky at everything. Take from others to give to "poor." We aren't doing anyone service by giving them something for nothing. I can see it now: "Whelp, $40k isn't enough now that rent is higher. Now I need $80k"...and on and on. Nobody is stopping proponents from giving someone else "their" entitled UBI. Use your own money though, not mine. Better to teach independence & self reliance. Grow a garden, hold a job, work hard, love your family, respect others. "Nothing has done more to lift humanity out of poverty than the market economy" https://fee.org/articles/capitalism-is-good-for-the-poor/
