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?

    100%

    This is always the argument; but any UBI bills worth a shit would have already thought of this and include laws on limiting that from happening.

      Would also help if we didn’t have strong monopolies and cartels. Proper conpetition would prevent this from happening as well.
