Satisfaction and drive to work. This actually happens all the time with ubi tests - people work more, not less. Turns out we're wired to try doing useful stuff on average. And you benefit either way - lifting whole community and reducing homelessness and risky behaviour is good for everyone around, not just that one person. The burden of social issues has always been and will always be on the working people. Ubi doesn't change that part.

Really? Because the largest, longest running, and most comprehensive study on UBI(from UBI proponents) found less labor participation, not more.

  Got a link? Stanford is positive about unemployment. I haven't seen any cases where that strongly failed.
