Do you really think people with household incomes of $80k+/yr are going to decide to forgo buying cars, properties, an other items that require credit, just to get the UBI, which would be insignificant to their lifestyle? Maybe some really miserly people would, but I can't see a lot of people doing it.
And how to you propose we create a system of regulation and compliance to ensure that anyone taking UBI is complying with your suggested rules? CRA has already been failing miserable at tracking CERB, what makes you think it can do this with UBI. And by the way, we also would likely be cutting their budget as part of measures to afford the aforementioned UBI...
