I'm a little suspicious of the universal basic income idea. I think in theory it's a great idea, but I don't see how it could work without causing inflation. I'm also concerned that it could be used as a lever to make people sign up for ID, fingerprinting or who knows - even microchipping. And when they talk about using the UBI to replace benefits, yet taxes must go up to pay for it, it just sounds like another government sleight of hand.
