So pie in the sky theorizing is better than looking at the data where this has failed/is failing. "not real UBI" is now "not real socialism". even the Stockton experiment has been propped up by private money. Its essentially a charity at this point. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-06-02/stockton-extends-its-universal-basic-income-pilot https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-06-02/stockton-... Furthermore, the entire benefit of UBI "is so that people don't have to work and get sick". It is incentivizing not working. It is incentivizing the dependency on the state.

> So pie in the sky theorizing is better than looking at the data where this has failed/is failing. I have no need to theorise. The data doesn’t demonstrate what you claim it does, as your own link makes clear. This seems to be a subject matter that makes you angry, so I’ll let it rest. I take no pleasure in enraging anyone.
