Right, that's the only way I can see a universal benefit work. You have to give the 20k to everyone, and you have to tax everyone to pay for it.
If I understand Flame Addiction at all (and I'm probably completely missing his point), the administrative burden on a non-universal UBI would be an absolute nightmare.
