To be real about it. Who is going to say it was bad receiving extra money a month? I understand the health data portion. Question remains is it sustainable and how would it be paid for?

I would rather see socialized housing, food, and (better) medical coverage than UBI. UBI could (maybe) cause the prices of essentials like housing to increase.

Thinking about it, UBI will drive the prices of housing down because people don't have to live where work is available. Companies have to offer cheap housing or people will live elsewhere.
