    Related, I’ve heard people argue against UBI by saying that it would just make people lazy and not want to work at all.

    I mean, it’s completely unrealistic to think that this would not be the case for some X% of the population. It’s already the case now, with the welfare programs we already have, after all. What number that X is, is what’s unclear. People saying “nobody will work” are definitely wrong, though, lol.
