Same thing with welfare, despite the availability of various government program, some people still end up fuck up. If someone fuck up and use up all their UBI

  > If someone fuck up and use up all their UBI then they must seek private entity such as church or charity. But if this is your attitude - people who mess up should be on their own - why are you in favour of UBI? Why don’t you also think that people who can’t get a job should be on their own?

    How is this any difference than the current condition right now? We have many of government program but we still have many mess up, they are on their own too. I prefer UBI because I can't choose however I want to spend it.

    > Why don’t you also think that people who can’t get a job should be on their own? Personally, I recognize that you need some level of money in order to take part in civic society. For example, it's hard to find a job without a mailing address, nice clothes, cosmetic products, and make up. It's also hard to put your time towards finding a job if you can't eat. Thus, in the interest of maximizing economic output and social engagement, we ought to provide enough money for people to be able to afford these things. If you are able to afford these things, but still mess up... well, I mean, you have freely and without coercion chosen to disengage with society. To these people, I hope they are happy with their choice, but I struggle to see how they could be.
