This is quite an uncharitable and inaccurate description of how UBI is paid for, least of all because of the implication that you'll be taxed the same amount that you'll be paid. Some folks will be paying in much more than they'll get back (i.e. rich folks), as they should be. Some (i.e. the poor) will be paying little to nothing, as they literally cannot afford to. That's the entire point.
