In regards to the first point, I'm not sure what kind of crazy implementation they had in mind with their discussion panel. Pretty much everyone who makes money is paying some kind of taxes, and there's usually some baseline deduction built in there. That's what you convert into UBI for the taxpayer. It's like the flat tax in that the net result shouldn't necessarily be more or less expensive than the current system, just a heck of a lot simpler.
