The UBI proposal in the article (one I find pretty weak, and I'm a huge proponent of UBI) is that you're getting $10k plus healthcare. So there's that. But. There is no part of the proposal that covers making sure coverage is equal in value to Medicare - in a private market I'm betting benefits start getting cut post-haste. UBI without universal healthcare is a nightmare, and is all but privatizing Medicare. Surprise! Also, since children under 18 don't get UBI, they would have to be covered by their parents' $3k/annual buy. But again, privatized "universal" healthcare? No thanks.
