Counterpoint: receiving UBI would not be any more of a "not useful" mark than simply being unemployed. Technically, we all are receiving a UBI of $0 right now.

Technically, we all are receiving a UBI of $0 right now. The idea is just to increase that amount to cover rent and food.
If everyone's getting it, there is no stigma.

- hippich 8y agoNot really talking about stigma here since, as you correctly pointed out, UBI assumes everyone gets it. It is more of an existential question for the person themselves - "what is exactly is my purpose"?
