I believe what commenter is suggesting is that the notion of "fairness" provided by UBI is too simplistic and easily fails to uphold that principle under any amount of scrutiny.
By simply asking the question "Who will pay for UBI and who will receive it", the degree to which it's "fair", "just", or "equal" becomes obviously nebulous

- adamsea 6y agoI didn't know UBI had anything to do with fair ... I thought it was a hopefully-pragmatic approach for creating a just and healthy society in our current era. Whether it'll work or not, I know that's a larger question. Also, I think it'd be more helpful if you would lead with what notion of fairness (why put it in quotes?) you yourself believe UBI represents. Because it's possible that some people may agree with you, and others may not. And that would be a good starting point for discussion.
