Wouldn’t work without also instituting rent control. The moment landlords get wind that people are getting money from a UBI the rents will double. So many parts of our system are so beyond broken that it’s like playing whack-a-mole with all of the worst elements in society.
Exactly. It’s a proven that will only show up at scale, and these little randomized studies will never demonstrate it.

Supply and demand are not perfectly elastic. A portion of the UBI will go into both landlord and tenant surplus, and we can tax the landlord surplus.
