What happens when you're on a budge of $1,500.00, and rent is $1,000.00. Now everyone has an extra $1,500.00 from UBI lying around. The evil landlords decide....hey, I can now charge $1,500 for rent instead of $1,000. In fact, I'll get a better quality of tenant at that price point, as the "rif raff" won't want to pay more.
I mentioned this before, but aren't their already laws in place, at least in some jurisdictions, that regulate rent increases?
