There's others that have posted the % overhead for various programs in this thread.
There is so much nonsense repeated here that for me to look up everything, which I have done in the past, would not be worth the time. Take a moment to pick one thing I claimed, check it carefully.

How much is spent by any welfare program is a simple fact. The budget spent to administer that is a simple fact. Thus the overhead is a simple fact.
And I have never looked into one and found this massive overhead UBI people claim.
Edit: from the first term I searched for

And even with throwing all that small overhead into UBI for free, and assuming UBI has zero overhead.... The number are still not going to work, or, as I started with, will screw those already needing assistance.
