No, it's not. UBI will never be a thing. It's entirely based on false premises, such as "the rates of unemployment, underemployment, and workforce participation under Obama is normal and expected", and "the money that funds UBI will just magically appear despite the fact we are paying people to not participate in the economic activity necessary to generate the revenue in the first place."
The TED talk video linked earlier that talks about "fixing capitalism" is hilarious. Capitalism is not a rigid system of rules, it is simply the allowance of private, self-negotiated transactions with minimal and predictable third party interference. Capitalism is not broken; we need more of it.
Please tell me how receiving 1k a month is going to suddenly cause me to not need to work. You are not going to take a 12k a year UBI and go "That it I am good! It's 5 O'clock somewhere!" and live this magical beach lifestyle for the rest of your days... You will still have to work...
But if you replace food stamps, WIC, TANF, and much of the Social security and all that underlying bureaucratic infrastructure with UBI I think it would work. I mean honestly, we have 43million on food stamps already as it is.
