The Pros and Cons of a Low Overhead UBI

The idea that if everybody's receiving a thousand, nobody's really going to fight against it versus the negative income feels a bit more unfair. I could totally see some Mitch McConnell style politician saying, you know, look, they want to give your money to Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates. But then, like, while I'm earning exactly $900 a year over what it takes to get a thousand bucks, I'm inclined to like skip a few days of work or something. So this all gets convoluted somewhere near the middle for me anyway, but yeah, that's where I'm at.
