I think I can rephrase your points into more basic principals: - Freedom: UBI gives individuals more freedom in how to spend their subsidies. - Privacy: By eliminating means-testing, we eliminate the governments intrusive accounting of an individual's life. - Efficiency - Spending: People can allocate their UBI more efficiently than the government can allocate funds on services. - Efficiency - Means-Testing: The process of means-testing is expensive and a bureaucratic drain on resources. The first two I entirely agree with; the third I'm not sure about, but the last I'm almost certain is untrue. Means-testing is expensive overhead, but that process is definitely less expensive than giving everyone the benefit. If it weren't, the government would already be giving everyone Medicaid. I suspect the real proponents of UBI are advocating for freedom and privacy more than anything else.
