Universal Basic Income will produce a nation of ghetto dwelling welfare addicts. Humans need meaning and self-respect, and that means income-producing work of some kind.

And not only that, if everyone is given a UBI, prices will rise to reflect the increased dollars chasing such products.

And how exactly does a nation $39 trillion in debt PROVIDE this UBI, when we are told Social Security itself is "endangered"? Only massive taxes on the rich could make a dent, and then they will just leave the U.S.
