The reality of UBI in the United States is that it's going to go from being something freely given to being something that is a full time job to maintain, and then it will be cut or replaced with services that are specifically designed to be as cheap as possible. Until we're all living in terrafoam, birth-controlled and warehoused until we die.
Manna keeps coming to mind for me as well.
It feels like UBI is (at best) likely to become as complicated and corrupt as our tax system already is.
