Yep - UBI is likely to exaggerate elements seen in everyday society.
Do you want to spend your day sniffing glue but can't now because you also have to work? Now you can just sniff the glue.
Do you want some social mobility through earnings? Great, have the UBI and a job.
To tackle this the UBI has to have a required level of education attached to it for proper usage. We need to ensure that public funding in a transition period (whereby taxation might reduce whilst the novelty of not having to work plays out) is protected.
And there needs to be some level of societal acceptance of what people should be doing (currently there's a number of communities where there isn't an expectation to have a job, even without UBI).
