One advantage of UBI is govts can streamline their social services division, as in eliminate them entirely. No means-testing and administration equals less bureaucrats needed to manage the money. You simply distribute it to ALL citizens regardless. Less pension obligations too. So in a sense UBI pays for itself. This why when they had a pilot project in Finland, govt workers were opposed to it. They saw the writing on the wall that they would be redundant.
