We’ve seen a taste of it, I agree with that. But there are a few major ways I see that this isn’t a fair test of UBI:
1) Indoor work is still unsafe, which is messing with the labor markets and making it hard to start a new business
2) If you get a job or side income you lose your benefits
3) The benefits are temporary so you can’t plan around them.
But anecdotally my fiancé was able to start a small business during the pandemic. And unemployment benefits helped.
