UBI is not relaxation and leisure.
But, yes and for good reasons. UBI is easier to implement after you have fee healthcare and free education not paid from UBI.
In Finland we have free healthcare, education and guaranteed minimum income, minimum pension etc. But because it's not unconditional like UBI, it creates perverse outcomes where effective marginal tax rate for poor people can be over 100% and is often 80-90%. In that kind of situation UBI is easily tax rate neutral. Only thing preventing it is paternalistic attitudes.
