I'm not for or against UBI. I just want to clarify the position of it proponents. We already do a version of what you're saying and it has a lot of administrative overhead and costs. For example unemployment requires recipients to actively be looking for a job. Unless you have a doctor approved disability. Or you got a really bad flu and were stuck in bed for a week. Then you have the people who go apply at the same place every week just to fill the requirement. Other people get an offer but come up with a reason why that job doesn't suit them, it's too far, etc. So now you need to legislate all that stuff and validate it. It gets complicated and expensive real quick. So maybe it's cheaper to "waste" money paying some young/rich people, if you can save all the administrative work.
