TABLE OMMITED
As the alternatives and table above showcase, a conditional — not universal — form of basic income would be preferable in almost all cases. The failure of UBI is the treatment of human capital as a secondary thought. In any credible and useful form, the basic income or annual transfer would allow the top 0.1% not to receive anything and the lowest 20% to receive the most. This is not a part of any true form of UBI.
