The Finland experience turns out to be a great example of how not to run a UBI experiement:
- no management support (government was divided and attention wandered)
- unemployment benefits sre privately managed so those entities lose out if UBI is successful
- not universal (no entire village/city was chosen)
- tiny sample size
- only unemployed people chosen
- no employed people, chosen from a range of income brackets
But regardless of the flaws, the experiment will be held up as an example of why UBI doesn’t work (never mind that the experiment was not UBI).
