That's one scheme. I don't see people really living off $1200 a month unless prices for necessities fall within that level. Whatever the amount offered by UBI

Whatever the amount offered by UBI, it has to provide the "Basic Income" for an inhabitant.
- Retric 9y ago~30% of the total population in the US live on less than that. Further, it's 24,000$/year on a 2 person household, which is well above the federal 100% poverty level. PS: Having regional UBI defeats the purpose of having a UBI in the first place. The goal is for people to more efficiently spend money on what they want, because they don't get more money by making poor financial choices.
