I agree. Milton Friedman says; "Instead of giving non-cash benefits like food stamps, housing vouchers and education we should calculate how much those benefits cost per person distribute that to people as negative income tax." Government spends tons of resources running these programs and leads to corruption and unfair distribution for a lucky few, "bucket is leaking". Every single UBI proposal/experiment I have seen keeps all the benefits and then adds an extra basic income payment, which works fine in a small experiment but quickly becomes unaffordable if you scale it to the whole country.
