2700 per month is 32.4k per year - that's awfully high for a basic income. I'm not surprised it's "too expensive".

Adjusting to GDP per capita gives a US equivalent of $20K/year. For the UK it adjusts to £10K/year, pretty much exactly the amount a single adult would get on job seeker's allowance plus housing benefit. (For pensioners and single parents with one child it goes up to about £15K/year.)

I agree, but we are talking about the Swiss here. Those people are pretty rich.
