The cost of basic income in the United States is about equal to the cost of getting us off permanently off of fossil fuels. This is going to send heads spinning as we decide which one we care about more, poverty or the environment.

Sashimi and gyoza cost about the same amount but I had both for lunch yesterday.

Getting permanently off fossil fuels is a one-off cost. Basic income is an ever increasing and perpetual cost. I don't think they are comparable.
