Unless you don't have any food....in which case either would be pretty welcome. I tend to agree that if we (society as a whole) determine that there should be a minimum income below which no one is allowed to fall, a UBI-type system is more equitable than a minimum wage increase. The costs of UBI fall on everyone, while the costs for minimum wage increases fall on the very business owners who tend to employ the young and/or unskilled. It's McDonalds and the local car wash (and their employees!) that take it in the neck with a minimum wage increase, not Google or Goldman Sachs.
