I agree with most of the points you made, however: > Knowledge is something anyone can attain I don't agree with this. I don't have a proof for this, but I think this is the kind of thinking that can trap people (and society) in the mindset of "they should work more" or something. Where I live (France), people with disabilities can get money from the state because they're considered "unfit for work". This doesn't mean that they can't and shouldn't work, but that compared to the average person, working for them is harder so we try to make life easier for them, to compensate. I think something like that for "intelligence" could be nice (although I wouldn't know how to measure it). We already have something that looks like UBI in France (RSA) but it's not really universal. For example, I don't benefit from it because I work. Students also don't get it. I like the idea of UBI though, not having to work to live is appealing to me in principle.
