UBI vs. The Status Quo

I hear that means testing is pretty expensive both both for the government and a lot for the people that need the assistance. A lot of the most badly off just can't do it because they aren't don't have the the mental ability or emotional ability to go through the process. So, um, if you're talking about UBI versus the status quo, I do prefer the UBI for that exact reason. But the negative income tax doesn't have that much in the way of means testing.
