And meanwhile everybody from 18 to 30+ that lives paycheck to paycheck, without a possibility of getting into a mortgage, without being financially stable enough to become parents, get nothing.

Also, "everybody" will get 20k? Even people that are rich? What is the reasoning behind that?

Too many edges to sand down in this proposal.

Whole UBI idea is just for make citizens more dependent on state rather than free market. Capitalism vs socialism.

Tbh, I'm not against a Basic Income. I'm against the "Universal" part. A basic income should be something handed out to those in need of it and they should be helped so they can stop relying on it.

Thus handing out 20k to everybody no matter their situation seems like a really bad idea to me.
