Six of one, half a dozen of the other. The difference is that Fed injections benefit the wealthy, and a UBI benefits the poor most. This is not inflationary, since we are in a depression. As far as devaluing the dollar versus other currencies, everyone else is creating tons of money as well. I'd really welcome a dollar devaluation, actually, to help with our trade deficit.
