Not sure which way this post is arguing, but in my anti-UBI opinion, providing UBI does control the lives of others primarily by stealing from productive members to give to unproductive ones.
I have no problem if people want to personally finance folks to not work via private charity, but when it becomes a government program, you are definitionally controlling everyone.
Because control over lives of others is what makes a well functioning society. This is something that every single anarchist/libertarian is incapable of understanding, despite living in the developed part of the world.
It's just not personal control but institutional control.
