Thank you; I was unaware of this common parlance. I understood that UBI implicitly meant something that one could live off of. In that case, I prefer something like a Friedmanesque negative income tax, versus the absurd scenario of, say, a pauper and a millionaire both receiving the same basic income; or indeed over the existing absurdities of the means-tested welfare system, with all of its perverse incentives.
