I hope Switzerland votes for UBI, it would be interesting to see actual data rather than just conjecture. The point about people losing the will to work is interesting, as he also makes the point that jobs give us purpose and structure in life. If money is no longer an issue, or less of an issue, people may choose to do jobs because they provide purpose and structure. It could also increase innovation. There have been lots of article on HN recently about the privileges white males have in terms of financial security, that make it safer to start businesses than non-white and non-males. UBI might allow more people to do this. Another interesting aspect would be the economic effect of everyone having a minimum amount of money. I don't know enough about economic to say what the impact would be on basis good vs luxury goods and everything in between but I imagine it would have an effect.
