Do not confuse welfare with Universal Basic Income. If you get $1k in welfare does it make sense to take a $1k job, lose your welfare and end up with the same $1k? No.

If you get $1k UBI, does it make sense to take a $1k job and end up with $2k? Yes.

This is why so many pilots show increases in work.

@scottsantens serious question: if my landlord knows, i will receive $1000 as UBI what will hinder the landlord to set the rent at that price, knowing everyone will have that money?
