i dont believe he was very upfront about the fact that his UBI was supposed to replace all other government programs. so if someone is receiving section 8 and SNAP they would no longer get section 8 rates on their rent and the UBI would be immediately eaten up, and now that person has nothing left for food cause the UBI was meant to replace SNAP as well
im no yang expert but that always seemed really dishonest to me
