Ideally, I would like to see a base income provided for people who actually need it, or people who fall below a certain income level. If you don't want to call that a UBI, then fine, call it by some other name, I don't really care.
Or, if everyone was provided with a UBI, I would hope that individuals would have some sort of ability to opt-out of receiving it if they didn't actually need it.
The entire point is giving people who truly need it an opportunity to have some kind of income, which I believe would prevent a lot of individuals from resorting to crime to obtain money or housing.
Hopefully, we could trust people who do not need it to opt-out, or maybe choose to have the money donated to a charity or something.
If you're frightened of dying, and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the Earth.
