Good idea. Perhaps they do that

But why would you work if you can live for free? I remember there used to be a tv show called” dirty jobs”. They showed jobs that were dealing with “ dirty stuff” and often under really uncomfortable conditions, like having to crawl into a tight space to clean something very stinky. I remember noticing that the worker they interviewed often seem to be proud of what they do, sometimes it sounded like they had a passion for it. You kind of had to have a passion in order to do it. I wonder, it people just get paid to do nothing if there is even a chance people would try out difficult jobs, because they don’t have to?UBI, properly done, would complement any earnings a person may make. CERB rules penalized people for working.
My guess is…Rich people with accountants will find a loophole not to pay it back and provinces will probably try to claw it back from disability recipients as unearned income. The poorest people always get screwed for being poor and those who aren’t don’t realize it. Sorry, I’m cynical/ not optimistic. It’s just that the govt, any govt, never does these things well. What they say they are doing to help and what happens in reality are two different things. (I’m sorry I just don’t trust anything anymore unless the plan comes from anti poverty advocates on the ground)
