It's nice to see that the NYT followed a few recipients of basic income to observe how it impacted their lives, but one-year "pilots" are too short. They need to be at least 2 years, and their point is not permanent improvement, because UBI is meant as a permanent floor no one can ever fall beneath.

Is Universal Basic Income the Answer to A.I.-Fueled Job Losses? (Gift Article)

For more than a year, The New York Times followed recipients of universal basic income programs, which Elon Musk and other tech leaders have promoted as a solution to A.I.-fueled job losses.

Make sure everyone feels a visible/tangible benefit from government and also make sure that everyone pays taxes. Let the math work out that those with higher incomes pay more in than they get out, but do not ever make it seem like once your income is high enough, you deserve nothing but a tax bill.

Hubble Space Telescope image of Arp 25, also known as NGC 2276. The lopsided galaxy has a core offset to the upper left and a spiral arm separated from the others. It is interacting with a nearby galaxy, just out of frame. Credit: NASA, ESA, STScI, P. Sell Source

Against the black background of space, which has distant stars and galaxies scattered across, is a large spiral galaxy filled with streaks of blue and pink. The galaxy has warped spiral arms that wrap clockwise around its bright yellow core. Toward the upper right, one of its arms appears to be breaking away from the rest of the galaxy.
