So keep disability and aged care support, but drop all other welfare in favor of a UBI at around the poverty line or higher if budget allows? I can now see that working, and needing to pay care workers much more to get enough willing participants is probably a good thing.
I don't think we can rely on family or extended family any more. Even in countries with strong extended family and community support structures, people get left behind. And usually the people who need the most support, with mental illness or addiction or social problems driving others away.
