I have no idea on the consequences this would have on the economy. But I like the idea of replacing other very costly social measures (such as unemployment benefits) with a universal income. We keep seeing unemployment as a huge failure of our system when at the same time, we're happy that innovation increases productivity and automation. Maybe universal basic income is the paradigm switch that we need.
