It is for a definition of UBI that is broader than yours (whatever that may be). Welfare is a UBI for a segment of the population. If the solutions are always the same, with a varying bar of minimum means, the people of the US have already agreed to it. What's left is to argue about degree. The emergency stimulus checks are concrete proof of that.
