@johannab@cosocial.ca UBI inflates the goods and services needed by recipients, firms will increase prices to absorb as much of their new funding as possible. Thus universal access to goods and services is preferred over cash, and the govt controls prices when procuring them, through its purchasing scale and industry information. Like it used to do for drugs, medical services, postsecondary education, and housing.
