I wouldn't call trying to build and maintain a prosperous society a "road to hell", but it's true that UBI is just a different form of wealth redistribution. But most nations currently achieve redistribution through a convoluted mosaic of overlapping/competing/intertwined systems, each with their own entrenched bureaucracies and complicated rules. In contrast, a UBI system can be streamlined and efficient and, based on studies like these, even have better outcomes for recipients. |

The phrase was "road to hell is paved with good intentions". "Trying to build and maintain a prosperous society" was the good intentions part. The hell part is the reality that the next generation lives in after wealth redistribution has been forced: we've seen it over and over again, every time it's been tried.
