No such animal as "Free Money" universal Income - it comes from taxes and is a wealth re-distribution penalty for working folks who earn a living
It is simply expanded Welfare for All.
And an unsustainable largess, complicated by the fact that it pays people to not work.
And become parasites of the DPST socialist system.
Panders to lazy, unmotivated individuals who want to live in Mom's basement and collect Welfare.
As in Proponents of this - see above.

This is just one of a 1000 examples. I don't want $1,000 from the govt a month, but if you did give this to people there could be some advantages. Already we have a ton of people and this could be adjusted. People could go to school and get trained. The problem you are seeing is a much of our population is going to be replaced by AI and robots. Jobs like bank tellers, grocery checkers are gone. The same with auto workers.
