I think if you could access a 40k per year per couple pension at anytime you would see a huge jump in mustachian culture where highly paid and educated DINKs work hard until 35 then retire and have families.

We could certainly look at expanding student loan forgiveness to make post secondary education accessible to more people. But I disagree with your overall notion of the single parent living in poverty. People have to realize that having a child is a choice, and by making that choice they are accepting certain responsibilities. Having access to a UBI plus income from a full-time job... it would seem that, in most cases, it won't result in the parent & child living in poverty. If anything, UBI incentivizes couples to stay together.

Bingo. Supply and demand. If prices are too high, it means there is a shortage of supply.
