I think most proposals - at least right now the serious ones - are only talking about those already receiving similar value government assistance. Personally I see something close to universal UBI way down the line assuming we can eliminate a large % of human jobs and reduce the amount of work significantly so even if you wanted to work there isn't any work to do. Take the profit dividends and redistribute it.

Arguing that existing programs should be replaced with a single payment for the current beneficiaries is not UBI and the two should not be conflated.
