Regardless of the merits or demerits of UBI, this is not really a time to study it. The economy has been stopped by the government with the expectation that the government will lift sanctions in the future. That is not an everyday condition at all.

There are many studies, people should first read them. It's not a new idea whatsoever, yet somehow many "tech" guys think they discovered it. It's probably as old as money itself.
